Description

Today one of our heroes (Red, Bomb, or Chuck) intervenes with the young birds to explain to them how to aim properly using coordinates. To do this, you will be able to experience some of his adventures and thus thwart the pigs' plans while perfecting your learning of coordinates in a plan. From the desert to the beach via the forests, the stories will be as diverse as they are funny in the Angry Birds universe. Let's take care of these pigs!

Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Define Coordinate Plane. Suitable for Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5.

Main Concepts

Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, to define a coordinate system with the intersection of the lines arranged to coincide with the 0.

When locating a point on the graph, you would first move from the origin horizontally as marked by the x value and then move vertically from that point as denoted by the y value.

The first number in an ordered pair is labeled the x coordinate and the second the y coordinate and is expressed as (x, y).

Where the x-axis and y-axis meet is called the origin and it represents 0 for both axis - the point is therefore (0, 0).

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What number is placed where the two numbers on a coodinate system meet (the origin)? What is an ordered pair? On a coordinate plane, which line is the x-axis and which line is the y-axis?
