This is my second year as a 6th grade math teacher and my 19th year teaching. We learn about fractions and decimals, which have their own difficulties, but graphing! Oh boy. Students transition from just one quadrant in 5th grade, to all 4 quadrants in 6th. They have to learn how to count on the negative and positive number lines. Plot points. Find the distance between points. Find reflections of points. Having these graphing boards and markers will keep the students focused on the counting and plotting and not on drawing graphs!
