Coordinates
Students identify and label the coordinate planes by the four different quadrants. In this geometry lesson, students plot an ordered pair correctly. They identify and differentiate between rational and irrational numbers.
Curated OER
Coordinate Graphing
Students practice basic coordinate graphing and plotting points on the coordinate axis. In this geometry lesson, students are introduced to ordered pairs, and the x and y axis.
Curated OER
Plotting Coordinates on a Cartesian Plane
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...

Graphing Coordinates
Sixth graders practice graphing coordinates. In this geometry lesson, they use the x and y axis to locate points that must be connected in the right sequence to form a straight line.
Curated OER
Grids and Coordinates
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.

Plot the x-y Coordinates on the Grids Below
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...
Curated OER
Coordinate Graphs
Young scholars use coordinate graphs in order to identify objects and their locations. They are shown how to plot the x and y coordinates and then are given values to be plotted during guided and independent practice. Students are...
Curated OER
Plot Points
In this plotting points worksheet, learners solve 6 word problems, plotting sets of points as directed in each problem. Students write ordered pairs, determine "what went wrong" in a problem, and answer reasoning questions.

Locating Points Using Cartesian Coordinates
Students discover coordinates as they explore Chicago. In this math lesson plan, students give the coordinates of a point, plot a point, and use the coordinate system in locating places on a map.
Curated OER
Can You Help Me Find My Way Home? (Coordinate Plane)
Fifth graders locate points on a coordinate plane. Through lecture and observation, they discover the parts of the coordinate plane and how to plot an ordered pair. Students locate x and y values in an ordered pair.
Curated OER
Straight Graph Lines: Coordinates
Students access prior knowledge of coordinates. In this coordinates lesson, students graph coordinate points to create a symmetrical figure and of a straight line. Students complete several practice examples.
Curated OER
Graphing Ordered Pairs
For this graphing worksheet, students graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. They connect each plot to create a picture. This one-page worksheet contains 28 problems.
