Learners 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.

Sinking ships, construction paper, coordinate planes, sounds like fun day in math class. Play the game Battleship with your class and reinforce the concept of graphing ordered pairs.

Scholars learn to plot points on the coordinate plane. The lesson introduces the idea that the first coordinate of a coordinate pair represents the horizontal distance and the second coordinate represents the vertical distance. 

Seventh graders graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. They create a scatterplot. Additionally, they determine the line of best fit and investigate the slope of the line. Multiple resources are provided. An excellent resource!

Students study how to graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. After a teacher demonstration, students work together to complete problems. They explain and share their answers. As an activity, they solve a mystery story about the...

In this Froot Loop to the Max worksheet, learners complete 21 different sets of ordered pairs. They plot each of the ordered pairs listed on the sheet, connecting them in order from #1 through #21. Then, students determine whether it is...

Students review ordered pairs. In this graphing instructional activity, students review ordered pairs with the teacher. This instructional activity includes a brief teacher script to help guide the students in understanding.

In this ordered pair and linear systems worksheet, pupils problem solve two equations involving ordered pairs and solving linear systems by graphing.

Use a kinesthetic activity to elucidate ordered pairs and coordinate planes. Arrange desks in a square array and distribute to learners cards with ordered pairs based on the locations of their seats. By having various groups of...

Where do the coordinates lead? As children brainstorm ways to find the location of different buildings, they learn about coordinate points and how to use them to locate areas on a grid or map. They practice using ordered pairs by playing...

Third graders create pictures using ordered pairs after listening to a piece of literature. In this ordered pairs and literature lesson, student listen to and discuss The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg. They participate in...

Seventh graders investigate the concept of ordered pairs as found in Algebra. They are introduced to the data set that corresponds to the coordinate system. Also students practice the graphing the ordered pairs using the x and y axis.

Your young graphers are motivated by watching three Cyberchase videos to plot points in all four quadrants, connect pairs of points to make a line segment, and find the point of intersection of two lines.

Learners explore the concept of ordered pairs. For this ordered pairs lesson, pupils list the ordered pairs of a graph in the shape of a fish. They use their calculator to translate the fish using lists, then translate the fish left,...

Students explore the concept of the coordinate plane. In this coordinate plane instructional activity, students discuss integers and their place on the number line. Students discuss locating points on the coordinate plane. Students play...

Students study the functional relationships of a variety of problems. In this functional relationship lesson, students determine the dependent and independent quantities of a given set of data. Students record the data and...

In this plotting worksheet, pupils plot given ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. After plotting each ordered pair, students connect line segments in consecutive order. Upon completion of the graphing exercise, pupils will have created...

In this graphing worksheet, students graph given ordered pairs on a coordinate plane and connect the dots in consecutive order. Upon completion of the graphing exercise, students will have created a picture on the coordinate plane. They...

In this algebra worksheet, students work with pairs of linear equations. Three problems ask students to determine if the given ordered pair is a solution of the system of equations. Students graph two systems to determine the solution.

Students use a shower curtain to represent a coordinate plane and then physically demonstrate their understanding or ordered pairs as they move from place to place.

Four quadrants, four times the fun. Future mathematicians learn the terminology associated with the coordinate plane and how to plot points in all four quadrants. A worksheet tests their understanding of the material in the 16th...

Elementary or middle schoolers use ratios to discover some nearly constant relationships between measurements of parts of the human body. They find and record pairs of measurements and determine the relationship between the pairs. Pupils...

Here is a lesson on coordinates that has pupils view three Cyberchase video clips illustrating the definition of "point" and "line." Along the way, learners will discuss what characters from the videos do, and where problems lie in...

Students solve linear systems using slope intercept form. In this algebra lesson, students solve equations by rewriting them in the form y = mx + b. They evaluate coordinate pairs to see if they are a solution to the problem. Students...
