This paper shows the results of a research on the knowledge of statistical tables by Chilean students of third year of Primary Education in Chile. For data collection, a questionnaire was designed and validated with three items, which address different activities related to statistical tables and which are included in textbooks at previous courses. This questionnaire was applied in three municipal schools in the locality of San Carlos, Bío-Bío region in Chile, considering an intentional sample of 79 students. The results show that students are more successful in reading and completing a table and that they perform better in activities where literal reading is required above activities where the students had to develop calculations and comparisons. These results show that students master basic aspects of working with statistical tables.

Keywords : understanding; statistical tables; statistical; Primary Education.
