Precipitation is shown by a bar graph and is measured in mm. Your rainfall bar graph should be coloured in blue. You will need to choose a suitable scale for both your axes. Make sure you read off the correct scale for temperature and precipitation. It is easy to get them the wrong way round, so read the units carefully and check that the data you are plotting makes logical sense.
