Coordinate Plotting

Free printable coordinate-plane practice — plot the list of ordered pairs on the blank grid. Choose a single- or four-quadrant grid and generate a fresh set of points any time.

Plot these points

  1. A.(-5, 1)
  2. B.(-3, 10)
  3. C.(6, -8)
  4. D.(8, 4)
  5. E.(6, 0)
  6. F.(6, 4)
  7. G.(-6, -2)
  8. H.(-4, -2)

Tip: start at the origin (0, 0), move across for x, then up or down for y.

Frequently asked questions

How do you plot ordered pairs?
An ordered pair (x, y) tells you how far to move along the x-axis (right or left) and then along the y-axis (up or down). Start at the origin (0, 0), move to the x value, then to the y value, and mark the point.
What is the difference between the grids?
The single-quadrant grid uses only positive numbers (great for beginners). The four-quadrant grid includes negatives, so students plot points in all four regions around the origin.
Is this coordinate plotting page free to print?
Yes. Pick a grid and a set of points, then print the blank grid and coordinate list free — no account needed. Use "New set" for fresh points.
