How Do You Graph Ordered Pairs in Each Quadrant?

Fifth graders analyze patterns and begin looking at function tables. This is a pertinent preparation for graphing patterns. In fact, consider giving your class a piece of graph paper and then teach them how!

Give your graphers a complete grid to neatly organize their coordinates and lines without having to draw one on their own. This four-quadrant grid provides labeled markers for each line up to -10 and +10 in all directions.

Take graphing outside and make a giant coordinate plane to plot your human points. Young graphers are each given a coordinate for a particular shape and asked to make the geometrical shapes one by one. Those not plotted are to write down...

Bypass the table and go straight to the graph. A short video shows one example of graphing a direct variation equation with a negative slope by using the same method as graphing an equation in slope-intercept form. Pupils see it's easy...

You can't get from point A to point B if you can't find point A. Using a helpful video lesson, viewers learn how to plot points on a coordinate plane. The instructor emphasizes the vertical and horizontal distance of the x and...

Order is important! An ordered pair is comprised of an x-value, and a y-value. The x-value always comes first. This ordered pair represents a point on a coordinate plane. If the order of the x-value and the y-value are switched then they...

Draw a graph, label your units, make a table of your given coordinates. Now plot your points, label each point as you graph it. Next identify the quadrant that each point is in and add that to your table.

Show your class how to use properties to make graphing easier with a resource that explores the graphs of quadratics. Using tables to determine the points to graph, pupils discover the symmetry of parabolas in...

Here's a lesson sure to keep classes in line! A straight-to-the-point video explains the steps of creating a line graph from a table of data. Following the video, learners have plenty of opportunities to practice with the included...

In this graphing from function tables activity, students graph given functions from a completed function table. This is a activity generator, the teacher can set the grid size for plotting points as well as whether or not to include a...
