Activities (5)

Investigate the Cartesian coordinate system through identifying the coordinates of a randomly generated point, or requesting that a particular point be plotted. General Coordinates Game is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Geometry

Related Topics: algebra, assessment, cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, graph

Plot ordered pairs on the graph, and they will be connected in the order that they are input. This enables you to decide how the pairs should be connected, rather than having the computer connect them from left to right.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Geometry, Graphs, Statistics

Related Topics: cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, data plot, graph, lines, vertical line test

Investigate the first quadrant of the Cartesian coordinate system through identifying the coordinates of randomly generated points, or requesting that a particular point be plotted. Simple Coordinates Game is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Geometry, Graphs

Related Topics: algebra, cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, graph, integers

Investigate the first quardant of the Cartesian coordinate system by directing a robot through a mine field laid out on the grid. Simple Maze Game is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Geometry, Graphs

Related Topics: algebra, cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, distance, graph

Plot ordered pairs of numbers, either as a scatter plot or with the dots connected. Points are connected from right to left, rather than being connected in the order they are entered.
