Keep young mathematicians on point with this coordinate plane worksheet. From plotting ordered pairs to identifying the quadrant and coordinates of specific points, this resource covers all the basic skills students need to have when...

The teacher diagrams a coordinate plane and identifies the four quadrants. He labels the quadrants with numbers. Then he illustrates a table to identify the positive or negative value of the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate and...

This video is actually really good. Jim Yang describes the coordinate plane, provides some historical background on its inception, and explains how it is used. Academic vocabulary is used throughout the clip and the visuals used are...

How did the Pilgrims arrive to America? Middle schoolers graph ordered pairs on a coordinate system, connect the points, and discover a mystery picture—the Mayflower.

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...

An excellent way to teach the basics of coordinate graphing is here for you! Young mathematicians take on the identity of one of the two numbers in a coordinate pair, and the entire class must arrange themselves in the proper order. This...

Just a couple of ways to look at some data regarding basketball free throw percentages for a specific player. Make a table and a coordinate axes graph. Plot the ordered pairs to get a nice visual to take a look at the data. Watch this...

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...

Middle and high schoolers solve four word problems based on three different graphs of ordered pairs which show the amount of money spent on lunch on particular days. Next, learners are given two equations of functions, and an x value and...

Use this Saxon math coordinate plane worksheet to have your learners utilize a graphing calculator, equate the vertices of a rectangle, and then graph their conclusions as well as answer a variety of fill in the blank equations.

Using an amusing amusement park, Sam describes how it is a coordinate plane and how to graph an ordered pair. Perfect for beginners, the animation moves on to point out a tip using the first quadrant of an empty coordinate plane.

Get to the point of planes using an informative video lesson. A thorough lesson describes the components of the coordinate plane including the axes, quadrants, and origin. The facilitator then teaches the process of plotting and...

Building on their prior knowledge about patterns, this series of worksheets introduces young mathematicians to graphing in the coordinate plane. Using written descriptions of different numerical patterns, learners create sets of order...

An ordered pair is comprised of an x-value, and a y-value. The x-value always comes first, then the y-value in an ordered pair. This ordered pair represents a point on a coordinate plane. There are many meanings of an ordered pair and...
