[Free Registration/Login Required] Sudoku puzzles are fun for all ages. To complete a puzzle there must be one of each shape in a row, column and quadrant. It's a great way to teach strategies while the children are solving the puzzles.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this lesson, students will learn the basics of the coordinate plane including quadrants, x and y axis, ordered pairs and the origin. A 5 question quiz is included to see if they get it.

Students answer questions about graphing points, quadrants and axes, and finding the coordinates of a point in this jeopardy style game.

The parts of the coordinate plane are described and plotting ordered pairs is demonstrated with several examples. The four quadrants of the coordinate plane are also defined.

In this service-learning engineering project, students follow the steps of the engineering design process to design a hearing testing device. More specifically, they design a prototype machine that can be used to test the peripheral...

Detailed math tutorial features notes and examples that take a look at the Cartesian (or Rectangular) coordinate system. Provides definitions of ordered pairs, coordinates, quadrants, and x and y-intercepts.

Medieval and Renaissance-era scientific instruments are catalogued and displayed. Find references to the makers of the instruments and the ways the tools were once used.

This Daily Teaching Tools resource provides two reproducible charts for vocabulary acquisition. Students can complete these charts as they encounter new vocabulary words or as a means of reviewing before a vocabulary quiz or test.

Sailors improved on many of the tools used in navigation to help them in their long journeys across an ocean. On this site from the Mariners' Museum, find many of these tools, perhaps in use already in the 15th century, but made even...
