What is a tally chart? A tally chart is a way of organising and compiling data using a table and score marks to denote quantity. A tally chart are a good visual respresentation of data as they are universally used.
Each occurrence of whatever you're measuring is marked with a line, or tally. The fifth tally is drawn diagonally across the other four marks to make a group of five. This makes tally charts especially useful for helping children with their five times tables.
Once you've collected all of the data you need using a tally chart, you can then use your data to create a more detailed graph or chart.
