How to Play
1. One player is X and the other player is O.
X goes first. X chooses 2 numbers between -14 and 14 and writes his or her ordered pair on the first line.
2. Next, he or she marks an X on the coordinate plane at those coordinates. His or her turn ends.
3. Player O can then only change one of the coordinates for his or her turn. He or she can choose to change either the x-coordinate or the y-coordinate. Player O writes his or her ordered pair and marks an O on the coordinate plane at those coordinates. His or her turn ends.
4. Play continues in this manner, with each player changing only one fo the numbers in the ordered pair and placing his or her mark at the appropriate spot on the coordinate plane.
