Rectangular Coordinate System

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Everything you need to understand the rectangular coordinate system is explained in this easy to follow video. Great for elementary to middle schoolers learning about plotting points, graphing, and locating points on a coordinate grid. The best part about this clip is that is takes the coordinate system into the real world and explains how it is used in everyday science.
