This quiz is really attention-grabbing one because there is a fair lot of questions and activities to do. Prior to entering into the quiz, a situation is described and the questions are based on this. It improves the comprehension reading skills of the child to some extent. There is a pie chart in every question that is divided into proportions based on percentage and then it is asked to find the relevant answer. In this process, the candidate will be learning the fractional part that translates into percentages and at the same time comparison techniques as well.

A circle graph, also known as a pie chart, is a way to show information by breaking it up into parts of a whole. Each part of the information is shown as a “slice” of a circle. The size of each slice shows how big that part of the information is compared to the whole.

Circle graphs are a great way to show information that is divided into parts, like how much time you spend on different activities in a day, or what percentage of people in a survey prefer different types of pizza.

To make a circle graph, we first need data or information that can be divided into parts. We then divide the whole circle into parts based on the information we have. The size of each slice of the circle is determined by the size of the part of the information it represents. The size of each slice is determined by the percentage of the whole that it represents.

Here’s an example: Suppose we have a survey asking people what their favorite ice cream flavor is. The results are:

  • vanilla: 25%
  • chocolate: 35%
  • strawberry: 20%
  • mint: 10%
  • other: 10%

To make a circle graph, we would:

  1. Draw a circle
  2. Divide the whole circle into parts based on the percentages. Vanilla would be 25%, chocolate would be 35%, strawberry would be 20%, mint would be 10% and other would be 10%.
  3. Draw each slice of the circle, representing each flavor.
  4. Label the slices with the name of the flavor and the percentage of the whole that it represents.

It’s important to note that in the end all the percentages should add up to 100%.

Circle graphs can be a great tool for kids to visualize and compare different parts of a whole. It’s a good idea to practice with a few examples and also show kids real-world examples of circle graphs such as in newspaper, magazines or websites.

It’s also important to note that sometimes, due to lack of space, a sector of a circle may not be able to depict the exact percentage and may be slightly off, that’s why it’s essential to label the data and percentages on the graph as well.

Additionally, it’s a good idea to compare the data represented in a circle graph with other type of representation, such as bar graphs, line graphs and tables, to give a more comprehensive understanding of data.

Overall, working with circle graphs can help kids understand and interpret data in a visual way, an important skill for their future studies and life.
