Your middle schoolers will show what they know with their bodies when they become the coordinate plane in this conceptual development unit. Starting with the characteristics of the coordinate plane, learners develop their skills by...

Patterns emerge as the class works together to fill in a number grid. This whole group activity is designed to make all learners feel successful, and ultimately turns into a lesson on the least common multiple.

Use coordinate grid paper to plot points and identify shapes that are already plotted on the paper by saying their coordinates. Pupils also measure the distance between points and play the game Battleship. There are several web links and...

Slide into vector transformations. Column vectors define the translation of figures by defining the number of units to move horizontally and vertically on the coordinate graph. Pupils develop an understanding of how to read the...

Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this lesson plan. They trace their hand on a grid, determine the coordinates of each point, and create a scatter plot of their points. Pupils use this information to investigate...

In this slope worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 15 different problems that include identifying various points on a grid. First, they find the slope of each line segments listed on the left. Then, students write their response on...

In this geometry activity, 10th graders are given points on a coordinate plane, and they must figure out what the x and y values are. There are 6 graphing question.

Students explore the coordinate plane.  In this middle school/Algebra I lesson, students use dice with numbers and signs to play a game in which they must locate points on a coordinate plane.  Students work in teams to place...

Students examine how archaeologists preserve context of sites through use of rectangular grid or Cartesian coordinate system, and develop sense of distance by pacing off and estimating distances.

In this math worksheet, students take turns asking each other questions about a given grid. Students answer by giving the coordinates of the number.

In this systems of inequalities learning exercise, 11th graders solve and complete 8 different problems that include graphing. First, they graph each system of inequalities to determine the overlapping portion in each. Then, students...

Proofs are usually an intimidating assignment. An engaging lesson focused on geometric proofs may reduce the anxiety! Pupils choose between several triangle proofs to complete and work on completing them. The...

Two videos show first how to perform a rotation, given the center, the angle, and the direction of rotations. Individuals then see how to find what the rotation is from one figure to another. Pupils practice doing both in seven problems...

A quick description of a classroom management technique that allows a teacher to choose participants at random. Assigning grid locations is an easy way to reinforce grid structure as well as giveing an easy way to complete tidying tasks,...

Young scholars investigate ordered pairs. In this math lesson, students plot and locate ordered pairs in a coordinate plane and are exposed to how to read and create a map.

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...

For this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the midpoint of a line segment given the coordinates of the two endpoints or find the missing endpoint given the coordinates of the midpoint and one endpoint.  The one page...

In this algebra activity, students identify the points on a graph and make sure the lines satisfy the conditions placed on the values.

In this coordinates instructional activity, students solve the percentage problems in the box that is called out by the coordinate where they change the percentages to decimals. Students complete 16 problems.  

In this division and multiplication activity, students play a game where they solve a division problem and turn it into a multiplication problem using coordinates. Students complete 16 problems.

You and your learners will enjoy having many copies of this trigonometric graph set on the Cartesian coordinate grid with a domain running from -360 degrees to 360 degrees and a range running from -2 to 2.

In this grids instructional activity, students learn about grids, or coordinate plants, axes, coordinates, plotting and ordered pairs. They then complete the 5 questions using what they learned. The answers are on the last page.

Students coordinate grid points on X and Y axises to plot a physical location. The game of "Battleship is used to present first hand knowledge of this skill.

Students sit in 25 desks arranged in a square array. They are a human coordinate plane and each of them is to receive a card with an ordered pair (x,y) on it. They who are not seated distribute the ordered pair cards to the appropriate...
