Mathematics ITP: Coordinates

This interactive teaching program (ITP) is an ICT-based tool to support the exploration of coordinates. Coordinates ITP allows the child or teacher to use a marker to identify the coordinates of points on different grids, mark points and draw lines and shapes, working in one, two or four quadrants to introduce both positive and negative coordinates. The ITP can also be used to explore the properties of 2-D shapes and to predict translations, rotations and reflections of various shapes in the different quadrants. The application (in a variety of formats) and guidance for using the application (as PDF or Word file) can be downloaded from this page.
