Winter Weather Days Pictograph

This pictograph worksheet for 3rd grade has students read and build a scaled picture graph, where each weather symbol stands for 5 days. Students first read a data table showing how many sunny, cloudy, snowy, and rainy days a class recorded on a winter weather calendar, then draw sun, cloud, snowflake, and raindrop symbols to complete a full-page pictograph.

A scaled pictograph asks students to use a key: they count by 5s for each symbol to find how many days each kind of weather occurred. A built-in Make a Prediction box invites students to guess which weather was most common and explain their thinking from the numbers in the table — a light reasoning step before they graph.

Because students represent weather data in a graphical display to describe a season, this resource is honestly aligned to both CCSS 3.MD.B.3 and NGSS 3-ESS2-1, making it a natural fit for a math graphing unit or a science weather unit. Everything is print-ready and no-prep: a clean data table, a large easy-to-draw pictograph grid, and a one-page answer key with the completed, color-coded picture graph. Great for a winter graphing unit, a math or science center, morning work, review, or homework.
