Graphing Coordinate Planes
Graphing Ordered Pairs
In this lesson you will be practicing graphing ordered pairs. There are three separate tasks that need to be complete during this lesson.
Task 1: Practicing Plotting Ordered Pairs
Task 2: Plotting Ordered Pairs
Task 3: Creating Ordered Pairs
Each task will have instructions to help you complete this lesson. If you have questions while working, please ask!
Task 1: Practicing Plotting Ordered Pairs
Please follow the instructions on the applet below.
Instead of emailing the picture, simply raise your hand when you have plotted 5 correct points. If you do not show your teacher, you cannot get the points for this portion of the lesson.

Task 2: Plotting Ordered Pairs to Create a Picture
Using the ordered pairs below, graph each of the points to create a picture. Connect the points in the order that they are listed using the line segment function.
Task 3: Creating Your Own Picture
Create a school appropriate image of your own design in the applet below.
Make sure your image includes at least 4 points in each quadrant of the coordinate plane.
Ordered Pairs Used?
Using the picture above, list out the ordered pairs you used to create your picture. The idea is that someone else should be able to recreate your picture using the ordered pairs you list, just like in Task 1.
