Real-Life Examples of Data for Kindergartners (Numbers, Colors, Names)

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 🔢 Numbers: Counting toys, snacks, or classmates. Numbers tell us "how many."
• 🌈 Colors: Sorting blocks, drawing pictures, or describing objects. Colors help us describe "what things look like."
• 🧑‍🏫 Names: Identifying friends, labeling artwork, or taking attendance. Names tell us "who" someone is.
• 📊 Data: Data is information. Collecting numbers, colors, and names helps us gather data.
• ➕ Simple Addition: Combining groups of objects to find the total (e.g., 2 red blocks + 3 blue blocks = 5 blocks).
