Students in Mr. Lenhart’s Mathematics class are learning to become fluent with plotting points on the coordinate plane. A large grid was created on the ground. Each student was given an ordered pair and they had to stand at “their point.”
Their learning objectives were to:
- understand the concept of a grid
- know that the first number in an ordered pair tells how many units to go to the right or left and the second number tells how many units to go up or down
- name the ordered pair for a point.
- plot positions named by ordered pairs.
