Find a location on a map using given coordinates.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify the x- and y-axes on a map.
  • Identify the origin (i.e., point of intersection of perpendicular lines) on a map.
  • Locate a given point on a map (e.g., show me point A on the map).
  • Use tools (e.g., use craft sticks to extend the point to the axis) to identify an ordered pair as an x-coordinate followed by a y-coordinate.
Representation:
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: coordinates, ordered pair, origin, axis, grid, point, up, down, over.
  • Given a visual diagram, locate the coordinate values of an item.
  • Use a map to find a given location.

Cluster: Graph points on the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems. (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
