This document discusses non-prose texts such as graphs and charts that can be used to present data and survey results. It identifies common graphic forms like bar graphs, histograms, pictographs, line graphs and pie charts. These non-prose formats present information in an organized, systematic way that allows readers to quickly understand concepts. Examples of each type of graphic are provided and described in detail, explaining what each shows and how they represent different kinds of data relationships.

5. What are non-prose texts?
• Non-prose texts consist of disconnected words and
numbers instead of the sentences and paragraphs.
• Such as tables, figures or charts are used in
presenting a survey result that will be useful for the
readers. These can make your content more
engaging, more memorable, and easier to
understand.

6. Uses of non-prose materials are:
1. Present data in an organized and systematic way.
2. Allow the reader to absorb the information fast and
efficiently.
3. Explain abstract concepts, processes, relationships
in a concrete manner
4. Provide only the useful and relevant data

8. Bar Graph
• A bar graph is a chart that graphically represents the
comparison between categories of data. It displays grouped
data by way of parallel rectangular bars of equal width but
varying the length. Each rectangular block indicates specific
category and the length of the bars depends on the values
they hold. The bars in a bar graph are presented in such a way
that they do not touch each other, to indicate elements as
separate entities.

10. Histogram
• a type of bar chart that is used to represent
statistical information by way of bars to show the
frequency distribution of continuous data. It
indicates the number of observations which lie in-
between the range of values, known as class or
bin.

12. Pictograph
• These are the first graph types that kids learn about. In
pictographs, smaller picture represents a certain amount
of an item and the pictures in the graphs are stacked up
one after another. Picture fractions represent the portions
represented by the picture. If an approximation would be
estimated or given, the pictograph is representing used
for these amounts visually.

14. Line Graph
• Used to display comparisons between 2 variables, line graphs
involve an x-axis horizontally and a y-axis vertically on a grid. Dot-
connected and grid-plotted lines are what comprise a line graph.
These lines monitor and compare various data sets. Usually, the x-
axis represents time measurements while the y-axis is a
representative of measure or percentage of quantity. For this
reason, a line graph is used often for tracking variables of one or
more subjects in time.

• Sometimes called a circle graph, pie charts represent
the parts of a whole. Each ‘section’ or ‘slice of the pie
is a data percentage. From biggest to smallest,
segments are arranged in a clockwise formation. This
way, the pie chart features easy-to-compare subjects
presented in a neat, easy-to-understand way.

18. Tables
•present a great deal of numerical
information in a very clear and
concise way, with very minimal
space to occupy.
