Students explore transformations. In this math lesson, students plot points on a coordinate grid and construct shapes. Students discuss movements on the grid as flips, turns and slides.

Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this lesson. 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 aspect...

Students make a grid and coordinate system map of their classroom as they investigate why it is important to have a common map making system. They look at how landmarks are used for navigating an area.

Students develop skill in using co-ordinates. Up to eight cardinal points of the compass are used making this a useful activity in simple map and grid work. They utilize educational software to gain practice.

Students establish a grid system over an archaelogical site. They label each grid unit. They determine the location of artifacts within each grid unit. They construct a scientific inquiry concerning the location of artifacts on the site.

Fourth graders complete activities to increase their understanding of coordinates. They listen to Julie Glass' book, The Fly on the Ceiling, before playing fly tic-tac-toe and Swat the Flies, in which they use ordered pairs to state the...

Fourth graders plot points on a graph and transfer those coordinates onto a large scale model resulting in an outline of the Western Hemisphere. They identify the major geographical landforms of the Western Hemisphere.

Students analyze distance and graphing. For this geometry lesson, students work problems on a coordinate grid calculating the distance. They apply the Pythagorean Theorem to their data and answer.

Students investigate transformation on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students identify pairs of coordinates and their location on the grid. They perform rotation and reflection of each polygon.

In this graphing systems of equations worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 9 different problems. First, they graph each system of equations on the coordinate grids provided. Then, students state their solutions.

In this slope activity, 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...

For this systems of inequalities worksheet, 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 draw a...

In this systems of equations worksheet, students solve and complete 23 various types of problems. First, they solve each system of equations by  graphing on the grids provided. Then, students solve each system by substitution and by...

In this coordinate grid worksheet, students plot point on the grid. Sheet is a blank template only with no specific associated activities. A website reference for additional resources is provided.

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...

Students use a coordinate grid. They investigate and discuss what caused certain objects to be in specific places. They choose a room in their home to map and place objects in specific locations.

Students demonstrate how to locate places on a map using a grid. For this map skills lesson, students are introduced to latitude and longitude lines. Students define these terms and view a large map of a state. Students come up to the...

Students explore the global grid system. In this globe lesson plan, students identify latitude and longitude lines and how these can tell the coordinates of any place. They use the Internet to find the exact coordinates for their...

Fifth graders play Battleshapes which is a variation of Battleship with geometry. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders get a graph paper with four quadrants. They call out coordinate points and attempt to sink their opponents shapes. 

Students discuss the different types of storms that can hit land. They locate specific coordinates on a plane grid. They discuss lonsgitude and latitude to plot the coordinates of a tropical storm. They practice finding coordinates...

GPS is great for identifying your position, but is it finding your relative or absolute location? Ninth graders explore the difference between absolute and relative location, use the standard grid system coordinate system, and use GPS to...

In this SAT practice test worksheet, 12th graders answer 10 short answer questions. Questions are from a variety of topics, but mainly ask about geometry concepts. The test is self-scoring.

In this area investigation learning exercise, 8th graders solve and complete 6 different problems that include complete a chart with given data and a graph. First, they construct as many different rectangles as possible using toothpicks....

In this calculus worksheet, students problem solve 8 word problems involving rates of change in association with high school students. Students work out each problem and give a short explanation of each answer.
