Graphing Ordered Pairs

Hey 6th graders and 6th grade families! We are about to do our 3rd lesson in chapter 2, and the focus is switching to graphing ordered pairs. 6th graders are expected to plot points with x and y coordinates that are both positive and negative.

Of course, I will be teaching and re-teaching this skill in class (it is super important!!), but it wouldn't hurt for the 6th graders to review the skill at home, and even practice with some fun graphing games.

The video above is a great resource that explains exactly how to plot both positive and negative ordered pairs!

Also, this GAME is a fun way to practice. Remember, the more you practice the easier it is! Graphing ordered pairs will show up in almost every chapter in our math books from here on out!
