One big blank coordinate grid fills the page: x and y axes cross at the origin in the middle, numbered from −10 to 10, with all four quadrants empty and ready for plotting. A large grid is easier to read than the four-per-page version when students graph lines, draw and transform shapes, or plot a long list of points for a picture.
In the Common Core standards, 6th graders plot points in all four quadrants and find distances along the axes (6.NS.C.8), 8th graders reflect, rotate and translate figures on the plane (8.G.A) and graph linear equations, and high school students graph systems and functions. Change Axes go to for −5 to 5 or −20 to 20, or Per page for more grids.
Tips for using it
- Label the quadrants I to IV counterclockwise, starting at the top right.
- Draw a triangle, then reflect it over the y-axis: every x changes sign and every y stays the same.
- Plot points online first on the [interactive coordinate plane](/tools/coordinate-plane), then copy the picture onto paper.

How do I get a coordinate grid without numbers?
This grid always numbers the axes, because students need them to plot. For a grid with no axes at all, use plain graph paper and draw your own.
