TEKS 5.8C: Graph Ordered Pairs
Graph Real-World Math Problems on a Coordinate Plane
About this lesson
Learning Target: I can graph ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane.
Focuses On:
- Plotting points on a coordinate plane given the ordered pair
- Graphing ordered pairs in number patterns found in input-output tables
Builds On:
4.3G:
Represent fractions and decimals to the tenths or hundredths as distances from zero on a number line.
5.8A:
Describe the key attributes of the coordinate plane, including perpendicular number lines (axes) where the intersection (origin) of the two lines coincides with zero on each number line and the given point (0, 0); the x‐coordinate, the first number in an ordered pair, indicates movement parallel to the x‐axis starting at the origin; and the y-coordinate, the second number, indicates movement parallel to the y‐axis starting at the origin.
Next Level:
6.11A:
Graph points in all four quadrants using ordered pairs of rational numbers.

This lesson is designed to support student understanding of graphing ordered pairs on a coordinate plane including ordered pairs that are generated using patterns in input-output tables.
The two instructional blocks in this lesson are called graphing ordered pairs and real-world problems
The first instructional block has students plot points on a coordinate plane given ordered pairs.
The second instructional block progresses in complexity as students are shown input-output tables representing real world mathematical patterns and are asked to graph these points as well.
This lesson should be taught after 5.8A and 5.8B.
