How it maps to the curriculum
- JC
- Mathematics
Strand: 3. Geometry & Trigonometry
Strand unit: 5. The Co-Ordinate Plane
Suggestions for use: After completing the lesson of introducing the co-ordinate plane. This PowerPoint can be used to teach students about the MidPoint of a line and how to get it. The presentation also shows students how the formula for the midpoint comes about. There are practice exercises. I would recommend the teacher creating a plickers quiz. I have done this but am unable to share plickers quizzes. There is a worksheet to accompany this PowerPoint - Midpoint of a Line worksheet
