Making an Alien Mask Using Coordinate Pairs
In this math worksheet, students create an alien mask and practice graphing coordinate pairs. Students follow the directions to plot coordinates on an x and y axis. When they are finished students will see an alien face which can be made...
Curated OER
Number Pairs
As you introduce graphs and coordinate pairs, use this guided activity to get scholars started. They reference an example before recording number pairs to identify the location of 12 letters on a grid. Next, learners examine shapes on a...
Curated OER
Location on a Grid
Make coordinate pairs more engaging by having beginners color-code a grid based on given locations. The grid has numbers along the y-axis and letters along the x-axis, introducing them to the ordering of coordinate pairs with the x-axis...
Curated OER
Location on a Grid
This grid features 15 animals, and scholars use a coordinate system to describe the location of each. The x-axis is labelled with letters and the y-axis with numbers, and they list the coordinate pairs beside the animal names below the...
Curated OER
Coordinating Coordinates
Third graders explore coordinate pairs and coordinate grids. They use a grid on which each letter of the alphabet is assigned a coordinate pair, 3rd graders decipher a coded message. Pupils compare coordinate pairs on a coordinate grid...
Curated OER
Moving Straight Ahead
In this functions worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 24 various types of problems. First, they complete the table with the correct distance for each hour given. Then, students enter the coordinate pairs into the function table...
Curated OER
A Second View of Polar Coordinates
In this polar coordinates worksheets, students change ordered pairs from rectangular form to polar form. They plot and label points and identify alternative coordinate pairs for given points. There are approximately 20 problems on this...
Curated OER
Graph Study
In this geometry skills instructional activity, students examine a graph and respond to 5 questions that require them to identify the coordinate pairs of object on the grid.
Curated OER
Segments and Rays Multiple Choice
In this geometry worksheet, students identify the coordinate pairs of a segment. They calculate the distance using the distance formula. There are 5 questions with an answer key.
Curated OER
Coordinate Planes
Identifying the location of ordered pairs on coordinate planes is the focus in the math lesson presented here. In it, 4th graders are introduced to coordinate pairs, the x/y axis, and the techniques associated with this type of graphing....
Curated OER
Number Pairs
As you introduce graphs to young scholars, use this coordinate pairs activity to give them some independent practice. Learners examine 12 points on a graph, all of which are in the first quadrant (and therefore positive). They write the...

Simple Coordinates Game
Let coordinate pairs show you the way home. Scholars plot houses on a coordinate plane with given coordinates using an interactive app. Alternatively, they can identify the coordinates of houses already plotted on a coordinate plane.
Curated OER
Number Pairs
This engaging coordinate pairs activity will have scholars intrigued; they mark 13 points on a grid and then connect them to create a capital block letter. Which one will it be? The grid has whole numbers 0-10 along both axes, so...
