Finding Coordinates on a Grid

Identify a point on a grid using a letter-number coordinate pair.

Locate a labeled object (a star) on a coordinate grid from a given worked example.

Create original objects on a blank grid and write matching coordinate questions and answers.

Use the worked example (star at D,4) to model coordinate notation before students attempt their own questions.

Have students swap papers after drawing their own objects so a partner answers each other's coordinate questions.

Reinforce that the column letter is read before the row number, since the worksheet's own answer format follows that order.

Coordinate grid reading — students locate a given object (a star) on a lettered/numbered grid and state its coordinate pair, e.g., (D,4).

Coordinate notation writing — students record location answers using the letter-then-number format modeled by the worked example.

Grid-based questioning — students draw their own objects on the blank grid and write original location questions for a peer to solve.
