Description

Rabbit’s Grid Quest is a 2D top‑down educational game that teaches players (ages 11–14) how to plot integers on a coordinate plane. Controlling Riley the Rabbit, players navigate a 21×21 grid by moving first along the X‑axis and then the Y‑axis to discover hidden “special carrots.” Across eight levels—ranging from positive-only coordinates in Quadrant I to mixed positive/negative values in all four quadrants—students practice reading and applying ordered pairs, quadrant identification, and verbal spatial clues. Interactive obstacles (logs, thorns, slimes) and progressive challenges reinforce understanding without penalizing mistakes, making learning engaging and fun.

Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Plot Integers On A Number Line. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

When locating a point on the graph you would first move from the origin horizontally as marked by the x value and then move vertically from that point as denoted by the y value ((3, 4) would be moving 3 units to the right of the origin and then 4 up from that point).

There are 4 quadrants on a coordinate grid. Quadrant I contains all coordinates in which x and y are positive (x,y). Quadrant II contains all coordinates where x is negative and y is positive (x, -y). Quadrant III contains all coordinates where x and y are negative (-x,-y), and Quadrant IV contains all coordinates where x is positive and y is negative (x, -y).

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What are the coordinates of the origin on a coordinate plane? How can we use two numbers to indicate an exact spot on a grid? What are the two lines called that cross at the origin and create the coordinate plane? In which directions do you move from the origin if the coordinates are both positive?
