Where is the point? Given three points on the coordinate plane, the video walks through the steps to find the location of the fourth point to create a given special quadrilateral. The narrator first determines the coordinates of the...

Which number is missing? Beginning counters examine twenty-six number sequences, one for each letter of the alphabet. Each sequence has four numbers, ranging from one to 20. There is one number missing from the sequence, and learners...

Similar to the game Battleship®, partners try and determine where the opponent buried their treasures on the hidden coordinate plane. Two types of planes are provided, one with only quadrant one and one with all four for a higher...

You sank my battleship! The iconic cry of the time-honored game, Battleship will be heard in classrooms with this learning game that requires only grid paper, pencils, and an introductory knowledge of the first quadrant of the coordinate...

Represent ratios using a variety of methods. Classmates combine the representations of ratios previously learned with the coordinate plane. Using ratio tables, equations, double number lines, and ordered pairs to represent...

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 determine the missing vertices of quadrilaterals. In this rectangles and trapezoids lesson, students examine the characteristics of quadrilaterals. They identify the missing vertices of a quadrilateral on a coordinate plane.

In this algebra activity, 10th graders analyze a graph and find the missing coordinate pair using the midpoint formula. There are 3 questions with an answer sheet.

In 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...

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...

Students participate in a role-play activity to determine how to replace heat shields on the space shuttle using polar coordinates.

From the purpose of punctuation to its proper uses, guide your learners with this presentation. Great visuals dissect sentences to show where a comma belongs and the different parts of a sentence. Help your class use commas only when...

Students play a "Battleship" type of game to practice graphing on a coordinate plane. In this coordinate graphing lesson, students select a point on their grid to place their "battleship." It the opposing team misses the ship, the...

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...

In this play battleship with coordinates on a grid worksheet, students follow directions to mark their ships on their map, then guess where their opponent's ships are on the grid.

In this solving coordinate grid word problem activity, students plot points, order pairs, identify horizontal and vertical lines, and find distances to solve problems. Students solve six problems.

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...

Set up small courts and use ping pong paddles to practice hand-eye coordination.  Use the same rules as if you were playing on a ping pong table or mix up the rules and allow the ball to bounce twice. Sounds like a fun way to...

Students identify and plot points. In this graphing instructional activity, students use an X and Y coordinate grid to locate missing spacecraft on a coordinate grid sheet.

Looking for a great handout on slope? This resource makes a great study guide with the definition, diagrams, and the formula. Learners use coordinates to calculate the slope of lines. Positive, negative, zero, and undefined slope...

Studying slope? This one page worksheet has it covered!  Learners use graphs and coordinates to find slope and also use slope to find a missing coordinate of a point on a line. The lesson also includes a real-world example that asks...

Fifth graders explore the four quadrants of a coordinate grid.  In this graphing lesson, 5th graders trace sea shells in each of the four quadrants of a coordinate grid and then label the ordered pairs on each shell.  For the...

When will we ever use this? A Pixar movie maker explains to students how math is used in the creation of animated films. The movie maker discusses the importance of coordinate planes, transformations and translations, and...

Eighth and ninth graders solve and graph 24 different problems that include completing input/output tables and graphing the pairs. First, they find the missing values for each table and write the rule for x. Then, learners write the...
