About this worksheet

A line plot shows measurements on a number line, with an X for every object that measured that length. A tall stack of X marks means many objects had that length. Second graders make and read line plots with whole numbers of inches or centimeters, and use them to answer questions about how many objects were a certain length, which length was most common, and how many were measured in all.

This worksheet prints one line plot at the top with three questions below it, each with a line for the answer. Ask your child to count the X marks above a number carefully, and to write the number of X marks, not the length. Questions about the most common length ask for a length.
