5.G.2 - About the Math, Learning Targets, and Rigor

Full Standard

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

Measurement Topic

This standard is reported on the report card in these quarters as follows:

Learning Targets (I can)

• Determine when a mathematical problem has a set of ordered pairs.
• Interpret coordinate values in the context of the situation.
• Solve problems with a coordinate grid.

About the Math

This standard connects to 5.G.1. Essential vocabulary for this standard includes: perpendicular, axis, intersect, coordinate system, origin, coordinate, x-axis, y-axis, x-coordinate, y-coordinate, ordered pair, and quadrant. Visit the online dictionary Links to an external site. or visual math dictionary Links to an external site. for vocabulary support.

TASKS

These tasks can be used with small group or whole group instruction. 

• How do you find the distance between to coordinate points?
• Plot (2,3), (7,3) and (2,5). What shape can you create from these three points? Where can you add a point to create a quadrilateral? What quadrilateral did you create?
• If Jorge's house is at (5, 8) and his friend Lexi's house is at (3,1), and each square on the grid represents one block. How many blocks would Jorge have to ride his bike to get to Lexi's house?
• Krissy is at school which is located at (5,3). She has to walk home which is at (1, 1). How many blocks will she have to walk?
• On a coordinate grid, ask students to plot the following points: (1,2), (2,5), and (7,2). What shape did you form? On the same coordinate grid, add four to each of the x-coordinates and then graph those three points. (would be (5,2), (6,5), and (11,2) What do you notice?

SLIDE-BASED TASKS 

  These links are HCPSS created instructional tasks. These tasks are provided in Google slides. These tasks should be used for inspiration and resources, but instruction should start with students having the opportunity to engage with the math first (often involving physical and/or visual models) followed by discussion and explicit instruction to ensure student understanding.
