Day Twenty-eight: Finding Distance on a Coordinate Plane

Students in Math 6 and Math 6+ continued their work with integers and coordinate plane. Today's focus was on calculating the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. Items that were discussed and modeled today include:

• Use absolute value to calculate the distance between points that lie on the same on the same horizontal or vertical coordinate plane.
• Determine the perimeter of a polygon on the coordinate plane using side lengths.
