Coordinate Plane Project - Packet PDF
Coordinate Plane Project - Packet PDF
We have just finished learning about plotting ordered pairs in the coordinate plane and
identifying which quadrant a point is located in. In this project, you will produce a coordinate
plane picture with a set of directions to recreate that picture.
Step 1: Create a coordinate plane picture using only straight lines between points, at least
60 ordered pairs (some may be repeated), and at least 5 shapes. You must use
points in all four quadrants.
Step 2: Create directions for another person to recreate your picture. You need to identify
each ordered pair that you plotted, as well as the quadrant each point is located in.
See template in this packet and example below for clarification.
Example

AND SO ON..
