Let’s Make Line Plots! Maths Worksheets for Years 2 and 3

Your students probably are familiar with different graphs, such as column graphs and pictographs, but how well do they understand line plots? Line plots are another type of visual graph to represent data.

Teach Starter has created a set of differentiated worksheets to help your students strengthen their understanding of line plots. This printable resource includes three levels, each designated with 1, 2 or 3 stars in the upper right-hand corner.

Level 1 – Students will cut and paste the X’s and use the data on the page to create a line plot.

Level 2 – Students will cut and paste the X’s and use the data on the page to create a line plot. Additionally, students must create a title for the graph.

Level 3 – Students will cut and paste the X’s and use the data on the page to create a line plot. Students will also create a title and a key for the line plot.

How to Use Our Differentiated Line Plot Worksheets

Teachers can choose to focus on one type of level or distribute the worksheets according to student ability. This activity can be completed as homework, independent practice or in a guided maths group.

For students that need an added challenge, encourage them to conduct their own surveys and create a line plot to display the data.
