Step-by-step solution for: Mystery Graph Picture Worksheets
The image you've uploaded is a coordinate graphing activity titled *"He's the King!"* from Super Teacher Workshees. It shows a lion drawn on a coordinate grid using red lines, with the goal being to plot points or follow coordinates to recreate the image.
However, since this is a visual task and you’ve uploaded an image of the completed drawing, not a list of coordinates or a blank grid, I’ll help you understand what this type of activity is for and how it works—so you can either recreate it or solve similar problems.

This is a "Coordinate Graphing" or "Mystery Picture" worksheet. Students are typically given a list of ordered pairs (x, y) and asked to plot them on a coordinate plane. Connecting the dots in order reveals a hidden picture—in this case, a lion.
Since your image already shows the completed outline, let’s break down how to analyze or recreate it.
---
#### Step 1: Understand the Grid
- The grid has:
- X-axis (horizontal): from 0 to 20
- Y-axis (vertical): from 0 to 25
- Each point on the lion's outline corresponds to a coordinate (x, y).
#### Step 2: Identify Key Points
You can trace the outline of the lion and record the coordinates of each corner or vertex.
For example:
- The lion's nose might be at (9, 16)
- The top of the head could be at (9, 24)
- The left ear tip might be at (5, 23)
- The right ear tip at (13, 23)
#### Step 3: Plotting Strategy
To recreate the lion:
1. Start at one point (e.g., bottom-left leg).
2. Move along the red lines, noting each turn.
3. Write down all the coordinates where the line changes direction.

Here’s a sample set of key points that would form the lion’s outline:
| Point | Coordinates |
|-------|-------------|
| A | (5, 1) |
| B | (7, 1) |
| C | (7, 5) |
| D | (13, 5) |
| E | (13, 1) |
| F | (15, 1) |
| G | (15, 3) |
| H | (18, 3) |
| I | (18, 5) |
| J | (20, 5) |
| K | (20, 10) |
| L | (18, 10) |
| M | (18, 15) |
| N | (15, 15) |
| O | (15, 17) |
| P | (13, 17) |
| Q | (13, 20) |
| R | (9, 20) |
| S | (9, 24) |
| T | (7, 24) |
| U | (7, 20) |
| V | (5, 20) |
| W | (5, 17) |
| X | (3, 17) |
| Y | (3, 15) |
| Z | (5, 15) |
Then connect these in order, and also add internal features like eyes, nose, mouth, etc.
> ✔ Note: These are approximate. For exact plotting, students use a provided list of coordinates.

This worksheet helps students practice:
- Reading and plotting ordered pairs
- Understanding the coordinate plane
- Following directions precisely
- Developing spatial reasoning

If your task was to:
1. Recreate the lion: Use the above method to plot points.
2. Find missing coordinates: Look for gaps in the pattern.
3. Label parts: Identify which coordinates form the mane, face, legs, etc.
