2. Can you use your logic and good strategies to beat your partner in a game of Four Points in a Row? Can you match up four ordered pairs to four points on a grid?

3. 1 inch graph paper notebook paper ½ sheet of construction paper 2 different colored markers to draw two draw 2 different colored shapes

4. 1.Choose 1 marker and decide on a shape you can easily draw to represent your marks on the 1 inch graph paper. 2.Your partner should do the same. You! Your Partner!

5. 3. Take turns with your partner plotting points on the 1 inch graph paper using the shape you picked. 4.As you do, write down the ordered pairs for the points you plot on notebook paper.

6. 5.The first partner to get Four Points in a Row wins the game. 6.Be sure to plot your points like this: 7.Not like this:

7. Number your 1 inch graph paper like this to make a coordinate plane: 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y

8. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y

9. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y Don’t forget to write down the ordered pairs for the points you plot!

10. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y

11. 1.Get another piece of 1 inch graph paper. 2.Create another coordinate grid like the one below. 3.Plot just the WINNING 4 POINTS on it. Draw large black dots to represent them. Like this: 4.Write the ordered pairs for the winning points in large numbers using markers on the construction paper. Like this: 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y (1,4) (2,3) (3,2) (4,1)

12. Using Scotch tape, post these grids on the wall or the board. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y (1,4) (2,3) (3,2) (4,1) Give these to your teacher!

13. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y

14. 3 1 2 0 4 5 12 3 4 5 6 7 x y

15. (1,4) (2,3) (3,2) (4,1) Use Scotch tape and place the ordered pairs beside the matching points/grids.

16. How can looking at these ordered pairs help us understand the motion of an object?
