A 45-minute lesson based on translation of objects on a coordinate grid with the story of Theseus and the Minotaur as a hook. Includes a rapid assessment for learning starter/entry ticket to test understanding of plotting coordinates, exit ticket/plenary to assess understanding, and extension activities including reasoning. Perfect for Maths but could be used to introduce coordinates for Map Reading in Geography too. Ideal for Year 3 and 4, but can be used as a recap for older years. Translation element can be removed to allow younger years to learn about reading coordinates.
