Four Quadrant Coordinate Spelling

Created by

clayton brewer

Letters of the alphabet are scattered around the coordinate plane. I use this for students to become familiar with the coordinate plane. I pair the students up and have then encode/decode messages from each other. I have also paired with the ELA teacher to give a spelling test. The kids loved it, but it was daunting to grade. Next time, I would offer a couple of bonus words with the coordinate spelling.

Wooden cubes and spatial imagination.

Created by

Jan Zabka

Playing and working with wooden cubes is one way of developing children’s spatial imagination. If we combine it with drawing, we have a very good activity for a lesson. Content (more than 20 problems in 8 tasks): 1. Drawing solids built up from cubes. 2. Encoding and decoding solids in two different ways. 3. Fully detailed answer key (4 pages). It is easy to change, swap or add exercises. Children can work, discover and draw in their own way and at their own pace with or without wooden cubes.
