To plot the coordinates, two, one
Go right two, jump up one, and you're done
To plot negative eight, positive two
Go left eight, up two
That's what we do
On the x-axis, count left or right
On the y-axis, count up or down
That's how a coordinate's point is found
To plot the coordinates, nine, five
Go right nine, up five, to where you arrive
For negative three, negative nine
Go left three, down nine, where they intertwine
On the x-axis, count left or right
On the y-axis, count up or down
That's how a coordinate's point is found
To plot positive six, negative four
Hop right six, down four
Let's do one more
With the ordered pair zero, negative three
Remain at the origin
Go down three with me
On the x-axis, count left or right
On the y-axis, count up or down
That's how a coordinate's point is found
The coordinates are kind of like clues
Telling you where to plot the x and y values
And when you see them on a questionnaire
They can be called coordinates or an ordered pair
There are four quadrants
The first is in the top right corner
The second, third, and fourth go in counter-clockwise order
Finally, there's the place that you begin
At zero, zero call the origin
On the x-axis, count left or right
On the y-axis, count up or down
That's how a coordinate's point is found
