Eighth graders plot points and investigate polygons. They locate a point, using ordered pairs of integers on the coordinate plane. Students compare geometric measurements and computations on coordinate axes as they are applied to...

Fourth graders have a class discussion about fraction and negative numbers that were in the coordinates. They plot and read ordered numbered pairs. They transform ordered pairs and explore transformation of figures on a plane.

Learners map their playground as if it were an archeological site. They locate objects on the playground and determine their location using coordinate points. A related lesson is Coordinate Grid: Mapping an Archeological Site.

Ready to introduce your class to the coordinate plane? This website includes a detailed lesson plan that includes two interactive games to help learners practice graphing ordered pairs. The scripted discussion is a little cheesy and a...

Eighth graders extend skills for representing and solving linear equations to linear inequalities. Lesson activities build understanding and skill by plotting ordered pairs of numbers that either satisfy or do not satisfy a given...

Learners use a stopwatch to collect information for a scatterplot.   In this fastest legs lessons, students collect data through the taking of measurements, create and find a median number. Learners develop an equation and...

Students practice identifying points on a coordinate plane, creating charts, and calculating ratios. In groups, students play a "battleship" game where they determine the location of their own fleet and attempt to find the location of...

Learners plot points on a coordinate plane. They describe, in words, methods for finding the slope of a line. After given a worksheet, students read instructions, draw a Cartesian plane, plot ordered pairs, and graph lines. Papers are...

High schoolers investigate linear, quadratic and exponential equations using the TI calculator. They identify relation and functions using ordered pairs, graph the data, analyze the data, and relate it to real-world situations.

The comparison and ordering of positive and negative fractions is the focus of this math activity. Sixth graders are given one card each that has a fraction written on it, and they must put themselves into the proper order in a "human...

In this math learning exercise, students identify the location of pictures on a coordinate plane. They write some answers as an ordered pair. They read ordered pairs and identify the picture at a specified location. Six problems are on a...

Plant the data firmly on the graph. Given information about the growth rate of plants, pupils determine the heights at specific times and graph the data. Using the information, scholars determine whether a statement is true and support...

Make all the ratio representations fit together. The 15th segment in a series of 29 presents ratio problems to solve. Scholars use a variety of representations to respond to the questions. The problem set has pupils show how the...

Take flight with a fun activity focused on graphing data on a coordinate plane. As learners study the data for Granny's hot-air balloon trip, including the time of day and the distance of the balloon from the ground, they practice...

Engage young mathematicians in applying their knowledge of area and perimeter with a fun geometry activity. Through a series of problem solving exercises, children use their math knowledge to design different-sized garden...

Students complete writing activities for fiction. In this fiction writing lesson, students complete four sets of activities in a writer's workshop format to practice reading and writing in a fiction style. Students develop plot outlines,...

Geometric transformations are explored by high schoolers. They will create a set of instructions for plotting coordinates representing an original transformation of a real-world figure. These instructions are shared with middle...

Students discover coordinates as they explore Chicago. In this math lesson plan, students give the coordinates of a point, plot a point, and use the coordinate system in locating places on a map.

For this online math worksheet, high schoolers calculate the area of a variety of rectangles given the measure of their vertices. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into...

In this graphs instructional activity, students analyze a bar graph that shows retail prescription drug sales in the U.S. Students complete five problem solving questions about the data on the graph.

Youngsters use a graphing calculator to assist in creating a function table. They graph the function on a coordinate plane. They explore the relationship between the domain and range in the graph. This four-page worksheet contains two...

Young scholars experience graphing points.  For this graphing points lesson, students play an on-line game where they must name 10 coordinate pairs correctly.  Young scholars play a maze game where they maneuver a robot using...
