Let’s solve this step by step.
This is a coordinate graphing activity. You’re given lists of points (x, y) to plot on a grid — but only in the
first quadrant, which means both x and y are positive whole numbers (no negatives, no fractions).
Each group of points starts with “START” and ends with “STOP”. That means you connect the dots from START to STOP in order — then lift your pencil and start again at the next START.
The goal? When you connect all the lines correctly, they’ll form a mystery picture — in this case, it’s already revealed: it’s Frankenstein’s monster!
But since you’re solving the worksheet, here’s how you’d do it:
---
Step 1: Understand the coordinates
Each point is written as (x, y).
- The first number (x) tells you how far to go right from zero.
- The second number (y) tells you how far up to go.
Example: (6,26) → go 6 steps right, then 26 steps up. Put a dot there.

Step 2: Follow each START to STOP sequence
Let’s take one small example from the list:
> START (18,25), (18,23), (19,22), (22,22), (23,23), (23,25), STOP
You would:
- Plot (18,25)
- Then draw a line to (18,23)
- Then to (19,22)
- Then to (22,22)
- Then to (23,23)
- Then to (23,25)
- Then stop — don’t connect back to start or anything else.
Do this for every single START...STOP group.

Step 3: Be careful not to skip any points or mix up the order
Some groups have many points — like this one:
> START (6,26), (7,28), (9,29), (11,29), (13,28), (15,28), STOP
Plot them in exact order. Connect each dot to the next with a straight line.

Step 4: After plotting all groups, look at the big picture
When you’re done, the lines will form shapes — eyes, mouth, bolts, head, body — that together make Frankenstein.
Since the image shows the finished result, we know the answer is correct if your drawing matches that.
---
Final Check:
Make sure:
✔ All points are plotted using positive whole numbers only.
✔ Each START to STOP group is connected separately.
✔ No extra lines between different groups.
✔ Your final drawing looks like the revealed picture (Frankenstein).

Final Answer:
The mystery picture revealed by connecting the coordinate points is Frankenstein’s monster.
