A quadrant is any one of the four areas into which a space is divided by the $$x$$ and $$y$$ axes.

The origin is where the $$x$$-axis and $$y$$-axis cross. It has the coordinate pair (0,0).

Drawing on a graph or map is known as plotting.

Translation is a transformation in which every point of a shape moves the same distance in the same direction.

Plotting a relationship

Problem solving with plotting coordinates

In this unit, pupils extend their knowledge of plotting coordinates from KS2 by now plotting non-integer values. Pupils learn that a set of points can satisfy a relationship and this understanding is built on in the sequences unit

In this unit, pupils learnt how to plot coordinates in all four quadrants via plotting positions and then shapes

In this unit pupils revisit and further develop their understanding of the coordinate plane, and learn how to plot non-integer coordinates. Pupils then plot from an equation both by hand and by using technology.

Plotting coordinates

The coordinate $$(0,0)$$, where the $$x$$ and $$y$$ axes cross, is called the {{}}.

4 in the $$x$$ direction, 2 in the $$y$$ direction.

4 in the positive $$x$$ direction, 2 in the positive $$y$$ direction.

From the origin, 4 in the positive $$x$$ and 2 in the positive $$y$$ direction.

Which language best describes this coordinate position?

What are the coordinates of points A and B?

Match the points to the correct coordinate.

A translation by 5 in the negative $$y$$-direction.

A translation by 5 in the negative $$x$$-direction.

A translation by 5 in the positive $$x$$-direction.

A translation by 5 in the positive  $$y$$-direction.

If you take the coordinate $$(2,1)$$, add $$5$$ to the $$x$$-coordinate and leave the $$y$$-coordinate unchanged, which of these best describes the change in position of the point?

Coordinates A, B and C form a triangle. If you add 2 to the $$y$$ coordinate of all three points, where will the triangle translate to?

Which word best describes this: $$(4,1)$$

It coordinates the order in which we do our operations.

 It uses numbers to uniquely determine the position of a point in space.

Which of these best describes the purpose of a coordinate?

One of our axes is missing a label. What should it be labelled?

Which of these are properties of a square?
