About this worksheet

What students practice

Students identify a point's quadrant from the signs of its coordinates.
Students relate coordinate sign changes to reflections across the x-axis, y-axis, or both axes.
Students recognize that points on an axis are not in a quadrant.

How to use

Use after introducing the four quadrants. Have students mark which coordinate changes in each reflection, then discuss the error-analysis response.

Curriculum

Aquarium Care: Feeder Maps and Reflections

Use coordinate signs to locate feeding stations and plan reflected positions.

Read the Tank Map

The aquarium uses overhead coordinate maps to record feeding locations. The origin is the center of each tank. Use standard quadrant numbers I, II, III, and IV.

Match each pair of coordinate signs to its quadrant. The signs are listed in (x, y) order.
