MA3-GM-01, The coordinate plane
Stage 3 (Years 5 and 6) · Mathematics · Geometric measure
Plots, locates and describes points on a coordinate plane.
MA3-GM-01 is an outcome from the NESA Mathematics K-10 Syllabus (2022), taught in NSW schools. Because Stage 3 spans Years 5 and 6, the worksheets below come from Year 5 and Year 6. Print them as PDFs, or generate a fresh one. Every maths answer key is computed in code, so it is never wrong.
Teaching guide
Plots, locates and describes points on a coordinate plane.
Plot and read points as (across, up), x before y, starting from the origin. Extend to four quadrants and describe moves and reflections.
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Reversing the coordinates (up before across) and mis-signing points in the negative quadrants.
