Middle schoolers play a "Battleship" type of game to practice graphing on a coordinate grid. In this graphing lesson plan, students listen as the teacher explains quadrants and ordered pairs. They place their "ships" on the board. The...

Use coordinate grid paper to plot points and identify shapes that are already plotted on the paper by saying their coordinates. Pupils also measure the distance between points and play the game Battleship. There are several web links and...

Two of the best words any one can hear– treasure hunt! Your class will be excited to practice graphing on a coordinate grraph as they identify and write coordinates for landmarks they see on a treasure map. They trace their route to the...

Students graph linear http://www.lessonplanet.com/review?id=180542equations. In this problem solving lesson, students calculate slope and plot ordered pairs on a coordinate grid. Using a real-life example of a walk-a-thon, students...

Grab your class and get them graphing polygons on a coordinate plane! They investigate the four quadrants, discover the x and y axis, and correctly plot ordered pairs. To show their comprehension, each child creates a coordinate picture...

Learners work collaboratively to gain a better understanding of the vastness of space by scaling down the solar system. They measure by inches, gain an understanding of space, and model the distances of the planets from the sun.

Seventh graders complete activities to perform transformations of various figures and describe the transformations. For this transformations lesson, 7th graders perform a translation, a rotation, and a reflection on graph paper. Students...

What would your dream house look like? A cottage? A medieval castle? High schoolers enrolled in Algebra design the perfect house while using slopes to write equations for various aspects of the project.

Learners analyze the sliding of boxes along a warehouse floor. In this algebra lesson, students connect math and physics by calculating the friction created by the sliding of each box. They develop faster method to move the box, based on...
