Cartesian Grid - Axis (positive, just name) (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on identifying the axes of a Cartesian grid at a beginner level, specifically distinguishing between the X and Y axes. Students are presented with images of Cartesian grids where either the X or Y axis is highlighted. For each image, students are required to name the highlighted axis by choosing between two options: 'X' or 'Y'. This exercise helps in reinforcing the foundational understanding of the Cartesian coordinate system, particularly in recognizing and naming the horizontal (X-axis) and vertical (Y-axis) coordinates.
