Standards Mapping

  • MA.6.GR.1: Apply previous understanding of the coordinate plane to solve problems.   

  • MA.6.GR.1.1: Plot rational number ordered pairs in all four quadrants; identify lines of reflection.   

  • MA.6.GR.1.2: Find distances between ordered pairs with the same x-coordinate or y-coordinate.  

  • MA.6.GR.1.3: Solve problems involving the perimeter or area of rectangles on the coordinate plane.

Project Overview

Students will learn about the coordinate plane through diverse cultural mapping systems. They will use the coordinate plane to plot coordinates, reflections, and distances. 

Driving Question

How can we use our knowledge of various cultural mapping systems to create our unique mapping system using the coordinate plane?
