Pirate’s Treasure
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise identifying and recording the position of different points in the first quadrant using co-ordinates to find some treasure hidden on an island by pirates.
The class can identify and explain the correct ways of recording the selected co-ordinates correctly using brackets and commas to create some pirate treasure maps.
Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise identifying and recording the position of different points in the first quadrant using co-ordinates to find some treasure hidden on an island by pirates
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of worksheets to record the position of some different points in the first quadrant using the correct matching co-ordinates and a template to build a map of a treasure island when using sets of co-ordinates to identify different locations.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to identify and record the position of some different points in the first quadrant using co-ordinates.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to explain and model how to record co-ordinates in the first quadrant to indicate the locations of different locations and points. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
