Smartboard: The Cartesian Plane & 2D Space

The Cartesian Plane & 2D Space

Year 6 Mathematics · 2D Space & Structures · WA6MMGTW1–TW5

A Cartesian plane with four quadrants and four labelled points. — Coordinates (x, y): read across first, then up or down.

Across, then up

Read coordinates (x, y) as x across first, then y up or down. (−3, 2) is 3 left, 2 up.

Lots to cover

Transformations, metric conversion, area, angles and the plane — plan as a 4–5 session sequence.
