Coordinates (age 11+)
Plot and read coordinates in all four quadrants of the Cartesian plane, using positive and negative x- and y-values to describe positions precisely
Typical age: 11–12 years
“Can your child plot a point like (−3, 4) correctly on a coordinate grid and read the coordinates of points in all four quadrants, including negative numbers?”

Needs first
- Coordinates (age 8+)REQUIRED
Plotting in all four quadrants extends first-quadrant coordinate grid plotting skills
- Coordinates (age 10+)REQUIRED
KS3 coordinates work extends KS2 four-quadrant coordinate skills
- Fractions on a number line (age 11+)REQUIRED
Plotting coordinates in all four quadrants requires understanding positive and negative values on both axes
