Teaching kids to graph on a coordinate plane can be challenging.
x, y, z?

We used to say “x, y, z” if someone forgot to zip-up their fly after using the restroom when I was in school.

I never did quite understand graphing until recently.

This was a fun activity for the boys to practice plotting points on a graph.
I found this activity at MathClass.net. Click on the site to go right to the page.

How have you reinforced coordinate plane graphing?
