Take a coordinated look at rectangles. The task asks pupils to plot the length and width of created triangles in the coordinate plane. Using their plots, scholars respond to questions about rectangles and their associated points on the...

Go for a walk in the mall. Pupils find distances between stores on a diagram of a mall on Quadrant I. The scholars also determine the midpoint between a store and an entrance to the mall to then create their own paths and determine their...

In this graphing worksheet, 2nd graders locate the zoo animals on the graph and record the correct coordinates on the line. There are 10 sets of coordinates to record.

Fifth graders explore the four quadrants of a coordinate grid.  In this graphing instructional activity, 5th graders trace sea shells in each of the four quadrants of a coordinate grid and then label the ordered pairs on each...

In need of some algebraic fun with real world implications?Learners use ordered pairs, a table of values and a scatter plot to evaluate the validity of several real world data sets. The class focuses on  dog ages in human...

Every topic or subject has its own special jargon. Learners work on their math vocabulary as it relates to basic algebra terms. They define and identify function, functional notation, ordered pairs, rate of change, slope,...

In this grid worksheet, 5th graders use a grid map with coordinate points to answer six questions regarding distance between locations.

In this Greeley, Colorado problem, learners read a word problem.  They use given directions and a coordinate plane to determine the number of ways to satisfy given travel conditions.  This one-page worksheet contains 1...

Learners examine various types of charts and discover how to construct a line graph. Using graph paper, they construct a graph displaying weight loss over a five-year period. They draw copnclusions from the completed graphs.

Young mathematicians help Bobbie Bear pick colored buttons out of a box as they learn how to decompose numbers less than 10 into pairs of smaller numbers. To support students with the process, consider creating a worksheet or graphic...

Budding counters examine two sets of numbers on this pair of worksheets- one is 0-9, and the other 10-19. They write them in spaces provided, being careful to keep them in order. The numbers are already written out in...

Use the book Amanda Bean's Amazing Dream to inspire your learners to solve and create multiplication word problems. After listening to the story, they solve two "which is more" problems. They explain their thinking with images,...

Who has the most candy? Kids often have candy on the brain, so get them to learn in the process! Here is a great counting worksheet for Halloween week. Learners compare candy stashes between four pairs of kids. They count each stash,...

Those new to numbers will enjoy this coloring activity as they examine pairs of numbers and compare their value. For the first set of five, they color the boxed smaller number. For the second set of five, they color the larger. Numbers...

In this Cartesian coordinate plane worksheet, students analyze 4 ordered pairs and locate the place that goes with that point on a graph. Students also write the ordered pair for 4 places shown on the graph. Note: One of the places is a...

In this function table worksheet, 5th graders solve and complete 10 different function tables shown. First, they determining the ordered pairs in each table. Then, students use number patterns to complete each table filling in the output...

There's just something special about lines in algebra. Introduce your classes to linear equations by analyzing the linear relationship. Young mathematicians use input/output pairs to determine the slope and the slope-intercept formula to...
