Units 14 and 15: Graph Points on a Coordinate Plane and Analyze Patterns and Relationships

Unit Overview: In Units 14 and 15, students develop an understanding of the coordinate system. Students will graph ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems. Students will then focus on patterns and relationships. Students will generate number sequences using given rules. They will be able to describe the relationship between corresponding terms.

Learning Objectives

(IN2020) 5.AT.6

Graph points with whole number coordinates on a coordinate plane. Explain how the coordinates relate the point as the distance from the origin on each axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and y-coordinate).

(IN2020) 5.AT.7

Represent real-world problems and equations by graphing ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.

(IN2020) 5.AT.8

Define and use up to two variables to write linear expressions that arise from real-world problems, and evaluate them for given values.
