Teaching guide

What students learn

Create and read grid reference systems, using grid references and directions to describe positions and pathways.

How to teach it

Create and interpret 2D maps, locating objects relative to each other, and introduce grid references.

Worked example
A point is at (3, 2). Move it 5 right and 5 up. Write the new coordinates.
Answer: (8, 7)
Why: x: 3 + 5 = 8; y: 2 + 5 = 7

Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.

Watch out for

Reading a grid reference in the wrong order, it is across (column) then up (row).
