Picture Graph with Trees — Kindergarten

On this kindergarten sheet the oaks, pines and a palm are jumbled together, and the child brings order to them. They sort the trees by kind into the graph's columns, filling one square per picture, and count each column as it grows. Keeping the groups small means every total can be checked by counting the squares, and the finished graph is a true record of what the child sorted and counted.

Sorting into categories and counting each category is named directly in the kindergarten standards, and representing those counts is its companion. Doing both with pictures a child can move and point to keeps the idea concrete: the graph is a record of their counting, built one square at a time, not a chart handed to them already finished.

Children who like trees take to this one quickly, and it makes a strong shared lesson: build one column together on the board, then let children finish their own. When this feels easy, sort and count a different set in picture graph with vegetables, or try picture graph with household things. You can also browse every picture graph worksheet or the whole trees collection for kindergarten — each graph prints on a single page or fills in on screen as children tap.
