Where do the coordinates lead? As children brainstorm ways to find the location of different buildings, they learn about coordinate points and how to use them to locate areas on a grid or map. They practice using ordered pairs by playing...

Take your study of coordinates online! Groups of students complete an online graphing introduction, plotting the points of virtual objects. A worksheet is included for extra practice.

Explore the mathematics of infection outbreaks with activities that ask learners to use coordinate grids to locate infected patients. They calculate amounts of ingredients for antidotes and determine which groups of people should be...

Students explore area and perimeter through coordinate geometry using student literature, hands-on manipulatives, and the Internet.

Students use Cartesian coordinates or degrees of latitude and longitude to locate important locations within their specific countries. They Use a grid to apply the concept of latitude and longitude, or positive and negative Cartesian...

Investigate geometric reflections in this geometry lesson. Create geometric reflections that show the reflection across the x and y axis of a coordinate graph. Learners watch a teacher demonstration before proceeding on their own. They...

Students investigate rational numbers through data analysis and statistics. In this algebra lesson, students represent, rename, compare and order rational numbers. They collect and represent data correctly on a graph.

Middle schoolers construct polygons by plotting points on a coordinate plane. Pupils connect the points and identify which polygons they have drawn. They will need graph paper to carry out the assigned activities. A vocabulary list,...

Students explore geometry by participating in a pattern identification activity. In this tetrominoes lesson, students define the characteristics of congruent and symmetrical shapes. Students practice translating shapes across quadrants...

Students are introduced to the concepts of latitude and longitude. In groups, they identify the Earth's magnetic field and the disadvantages of using compasses for navigation. They identify the major lines of latitude and longitude on a...

Students play games as they review math concepts on grids. In this algebra lesson, students review quadrants and other parts of a coordinate system as they play a game. They must finish a word problem by making their final answer forty.

Combine linear equations and a little creativity to produce a work of art. Math scholars create a design as they graph a list of linear equations. Their project results in a stained glass window pattern that they color.
