Access Point #: MAFS.5.G.1.AP.1bArchived Access Point

Locate points on a coordinate plane.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify the x- and y-axes.
  • Identify the origin (i.e., point of intersection of perpendicular lines).
  • Locate a given point on a coordinate plane (e.g., show me point A).
  • 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: origin, axis, grid, point, x-axis, y-axis, point of intersection.
  • Identify an ordered pair as an x-coordinate followed by a y-coordinate.
General Information
Number: MAFS.5.G.1.AP.1b
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
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.
