Graphing Points in Any Quadrant

This lesson teaches how to graph points on a coordinate plane, starting from the origin. It covers plotting points in all four quadrants, highlighting common mistakes such as incorrect axis movement and returning to the origin. The lesson explains the characteristics of each quadrant and provides examples of plotting points in each. It concludes with a recap of the key concepts learned.

What are the names of the two axes in a coordinate plane?

What is the significance of the origin in a coordinate plane?

How do you plot a point in quadrant 1? Provide an example.

Describe the common mistakes people make when plotting points on the coordinate plane.

Explain the characteristics of each quadrant in the coordinate plane.
