| Summary: | <p>In this paper we analyze the relevance of acquiring competence in building statistical graphs for pre-service primary school teachers.

Consequently, we suggest the interest of connecting the topics of Dealing with Data and Number Sense in the training of teachers, since these topics receive much attention in the curricular guidelines for Primary Education.</p> |
