6.NS.C.8
Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.
Cluster 6.NS.CApply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.
Where this sits in the school year
Our Grade 6 Math scope and sequence teaches 6.NS.C.8 in Unit 6: The Coordinate Plane, weeks 15–16.
All four quadrants: plotting, reflections across axes, and distances along gridlines with absolute value. See the full pacing guide →
