Lesson Title
6.8 Rectangular Coordinate Grids for Maps
Math Common Core Standards
• SMP1
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
• SMP2
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
• SMP4
Model with mathematics.
• SMP5
Use appropriate tools strategically.
• SMP6
Attend to precision.
• SMP8
Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
• 4.OA.3
Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems.
Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the
unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.
• 4.MD.5.a
Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement:
An angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a circle is called a
“one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.
• 4.MD.5.b
Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement:
An angle that turns through n one-degree angles is said to have an angle measure of n degrees.
Objective:
To guide students in the use of letter-number pairs and ordered pairs of numbers to locate points on a grid; and to provide practice using a map scale.
Key Vocabulary:
 index of locations
