Allow children to explore coordinates using one quadrant in more detail with this supporting activity for Year 6 The First Quadrant. This activity involved equipment found in your classroom and is easy to set up and pack away. It will allow children to explore and put their knowledge of position and plotting coordinates on the first quadrant into practice.

This is perfect for a small group, adult-led activity to further develop children's understanding or to support those who find this concept tricky. A modelled example is included for ease of use.


Curriculum Objectives

  • Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes
  • Describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all four quadrants)
