Coordinate Code: A Fun Project for 1 and 4 Quadrant Coordinate Grids
All products are digital downloads.
Get your students engaged with this fun, interactive project that will have your students practice plotting and locating ordered pairs on a 1 or 4-quadrant coordinate grid. They will do this by plotting the entire alphabet along with popular punctuation symbols onto either a 1-quadrant or 4-quadrant coordinate plane.
They will then plan a secret message to send to a friend and write out the entire message in coordinate code using their grids. Their friend will have to solve their message using the ordered pairs that were plotted on the coordinate grid.
The project has two versions to allow for differentiation:
-
1-quadrant version
-
4-quadrant version.
Both the printable format and the digital format include grading rubrics.
