Young scholars gain practice reading coordinates and plotting points by participating in the Coordinates! Game. They demonstrate and test their skills with graph paper and the Maze Game.

In this review worksheet, students read circle graphs and line graphs. They identify quadrants in a coordinate plane and match graphs to their appropriate linear equation. Students find the slope of a line and identify the y-intercept....

Picture this—the class creates pictures using functions. Here, learners build functions to model specific graphic criteria. They use their knowledge of parent functions and transformations to create the perfect function. 

In this grid worksheet, students are given a blank 4-quadrant grid on which to complete graphs. Worksheet is a blank template with no associated activities. A reference web site for additional resources is given.

Eighth graders explore the coordinate system. They identify the x and y-axis, parts of the coordinate plane, and discuss the process of plotting points. To emphasize the process of plotting points, 8th graders play an ordered pair...

Turn a lesson on the coordinate plane into a class game of battleship with this fun math resource. Providing two coordinate grids and and places to fill in the ordered pairs that are guessed, this activity is a great way...

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...

Using an amusing amusement park, Sam describes how it is a coordinate plane and how to graph an ordered pair. Perfect for beginners, the animation moves on to point out a tip using the first quadrant of an empty coordinate plane.

Middle and high schoolers explore the concept of slope. In this slope lesson plan, learners graph lines using a life-size graph. They use chalk on a blacktop to create a coordinate plane and use each other as the tick marks on the grid....

Let's hope class participants don't get motion sickness. In the lesson, class members first solve motion problems using tables and graphs. They then use algebraic techniques to solve motion problems.

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,...

Writing and sketching functions—what more could you want to do? Learners write and sketch functions that meet certain conditions as they complete a short task. They find a parabola that encompasses three quadrants of the coordinate plane...

Here is a resource where algebra learners show their understanding of a system of equations involving a circle and a line. Once graphed, learners see two points of intersection, one where the ordered pair is read, and a second where...

Here is a task that gives the graph of the solutions of a system of linear inequalities and asks learners to analyze and write the algebraic form of the systems. By turning the problem around, learners make the connections between...

Given a value of one trigonometric function, it is easy to determine others. Learners use the periodicity of trigonometric functions to develop properties. After studying the graphs of sine, cosine, and tangent, the lesson connects...

Identifying the location of ordered pairs on coordinate planes is the focus in the math lesson presented here. In it, 4th graders are introduced to coordinate pairs, the x/y axis, and the techniques associated with this type of graphing....

For this college level coordinate geometry worksheet, students identify and graph points on a coordinate plane, find the missing side of a right triangle, determine the distance between two points, and find the midpoint of a line...

Eighth graders work in one collaborative group to understand how ordered pairs are represented and graphed on a coordinate plane. They identify points on the coordinate plane and communicate their understanding of ordered pairs and their...

In this ordered pairs worksheet, students identify 6 ordered pairs given a coordinate plane.  Students list the ordered pair given the graph.

In this coordinate grid graphing worksheet, students plot the given points onto each of 6 coordinate grids. All points are located in quadrant 1. One point is plotted on each grid. Answers are given by clicking the appropriate place on...

In this ordered pairs worksheet, 10th graders solve and graph 6 different sets of points on each graph. First, they draw each of the given ordered pairs in each problem on the gird shown. Then, students label each of these points on the...

In this equations and inequalities worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 2 multiple choice problems. First, they read and identify the graph shown representing a given equation. Then, students determine the graph that best represents...

Young scholars read the story Smack Dab in the Middle and complete activities such as charting, writing, illustrating, graphing, and more. In this Smack Dab in the Middle lesson plan, students also discuss the book and retell the story.

Students use Cartesian coordinates. In this graphing lesson students use simple formulae, interpret coordinates, and create graphical representations. They express their work algebraically.
