These simple slides demonstrate how to use ordered pairs. They explain how a coordinate plane is set up, then show a series of images located on the grid. The class decides which ordered pair is missing from each object, then determine...

Students practice identifying points on a coordinate plane, creating charts, and calculating ratios. In groups, students play a "battleship" game where they determine the location of their own fleet and attempt to find the location of...

Third graders explore coordinate pairs and coordinate grids. They use a grid on which each letter of the alphabet is assigned a coordinate pair, 3rd graders decipher a coded message. Pupils compare coordinate pairs on a coordinate grid...

In this grid learning exercise, 5th graders use a grid map with coordinate points to answer six questions regarding distance between locations.

Students explore graphing. In this math lesson plan, students graph ordered pairs in the coordinate plane, write the coordinates of points shown on a plane, and create designs or pictures using ordered pairs.

Third graders make a grid map. In this directionality lesson, 3rd graders review how to use a grid to locate objects or places on a map. Students draw a grid map of the classroom and locate seating assignments. Students create a grid of...

For this coordinates worksheet, students analyze two maps and identify the coordinates of ten specific locations. Students plot sixteen points on a graph and check their answers online at the end of each exercise.

Fourth graders create enlarged replica of a stegosaurus drawing, using a grid to practice coordinates.

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...

As you introduce graphs to young scholars, use this coordinate pairs activity to give them some independent practice. Learners examine 12 points on a graph, all of which are in the first quadrant (and therefore positive). They write the...

In this math worksheet, students graph ordered pairs on a coordinate grid. They connect the points to create a geometric shape. This worksheet generator allows teachers to select the size of the grid, the complexity of the shapes, and if...

In this drawing worksheet, students draw shapes on a coordinate plane at the specified location. They interpret a given ordered pair and then draw a star, circle, triangle, or square as directed. This one-page worksheet contains two...

In this gridlock:  a board game worksheet, 5th graders use the game board provided, read the rules for the game and mark locations on the grid using dice to create ordered pairs.

Students find coordinate points on a grid and create a line graph with those points. This lesson should ideally be used during a unit on various types of graphs. They make and use coordinate systems to specify locations and to describe...

Here's an engaging, meaningful, and clever lesson on map skills for elementary schoolers. Pupils combine story writing with mapping skills to create an original piece of work. They utilize a worksheet embedded in the plan to guide them...

Combine algebraic and geometric strategies to find solutions. The task asks learners to find the coordinates of a third vertex of a triangle to create a triangle with a specific area. The project is a set of seven problems that...

In this coordinate plane worksheet, 9th graders solve and graph 30 different problems that include determining various coordinates on a graph. First, they write the ordered pair for each point shown on the grid, naming the quadrant in...

In this effect of transformations on coordinates learning exercise, students determine the coordinates of 4 geometric shapes on a grid after a given transformation.

Fifth graders examine the geographic concept of absolute location. Using a variety of resources, they create a life-size classroom grid and locate the coordinates of a point, identify latitude and longitude of different locations, and...

Seventh graders are introduced to making inferences about artifacts. Using a grid system, they locate the artifacts and determine where they originated from. They use this information to make conclusions about the way people lived...

Proving triangles are similar is often an exercise in applying one of the many theorems young geometers memorize, like the AA similarity criteria. But proving that the criteria themselves are valid from basic principles is a great...

Students relate math with real life situations. They identify and plot points on a grid map. They identify and locate the Drop Box Sites.

Grab your class and get them graphing polygons on a coordinate plane! They investigate the four quadrants, discover the x and y axis, and correctly plot ordered pairs. To show their comprehension, each child creates a coordinate picture...

Examine a coordinated geometry grid to decode the hidden message. Pupils write a coded message to their parents using letter coordinates from the grid.
