Description

Your students will LOVE this incredibly engaging Coordinate Grid Coordinate Graphing Drone Delivery Math Project! While students practice a multitude of coordinate grid skills, they will imagine themselves as pilots in charge of drones that deliver packages for the fictional company Amazion!

What's included in this Coordinate Grid Math Project?

  • Drone Driver Licenses to ENGAGE your students!
  • Cover Page for Student Work
  • One page informational text article on the history of drones and the real Amazon delivery service, Prime Air.
  • Six pages of coordinate grid practice
  • One page of suggested extension and enrichment activities
  • Answer key for select pages
  • A digital, Google Slides, version with interactive and movable elements. Perfect for virtual learning and paperless practice!

I have covered as many coordinate graphing skills as I could in this project! Students will identify locations, plot locations, follow directions, write directions, measure distances and use map scales and more. They are sure to be coordinate grid masters by the time they complete the project.

Don't have time to complete the entire project? No problem! The only required page is the first one and the rest can be completed in any order.

Why Math Projects?

I began creating this style of math project in 2011 when I was teaching my students the tricky skill of multi-digit multiplication. I knew there had to be a better, more authentic way to engage them in the necessary but oftentimes monotonous repetition of important skills. I began creating these content-heavy but highly engaging and themed math projects in hopes that with just a little bit of creativity and fun, my students would not only get copious amounts of practice but also see real-world relevance that would bring deeper meaning to these skills! Since then, I have created many, many math projects, added fun props along the way, and seen my students' faces light up every time I start class with the words, "We have a new project today!"

This was a great resource to use in my classroom! It was well-organized, easy to implement, and required very little prep. My students were engaged and able to follow along independently, which made it a smooth experience for everyone. I also appreciated how clearly everything was explained and how adaptable it was for different learners. I will definitely be using this again and would recommend it to other teachers!

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., 𝘹-axis and 𝘹-coordinate, 𝘺-axis and 𝘺-coordinate).
Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.
