Now that children understand how to interpret bar charts, use this open-ended Year 3 Interpret Bar Charts Discussion Problem resource to let them explore their learning further.

This discussion problem will allow children to identify possible answers to a problem linked to interpreting bar charts, as they match statements to describe one of three bar charts. There are multiple possible answers for this; it is designed to be used to promote discussion and oracy opportunities, but it is flexible enough to be used in other situations too. One possible answer is given to support marking, which can be done as self- or peer-marking to encourage further discussion.

A varied fluency resource and reasoning and problem solving worksheet are also available for this small step.
