Arithmetic with Positive and Negative Numbers

Four inequality statements are given for the same two negative numbers. The resource is a good practice for pupils to interpret statements of inequalities relative to the position on the number line. The objective is for pupils to...

They could go all, the, way...to a deeper understanding of integers with this fun math game. Using the included printable materials, young mathematicians practice adding integers and calculating absolute values as they compete in a...

One-step equations are the foundation of algebra and your mathematicians can strengthen their skill set with this two-page learning exercise. The problems consist of all the operations and include positive and negative numbers for...

Young mathematicians solve and complete 22 different problems that include using a number line to evaluate. First, they define each of the terms listed. Then, pupils graph each integer on the given number line. They also evaluate each...

Develop the rules for adding rational numbers. Pupils continue to work on adding integers. Young mathematicians use their experiences to develop the rules for adding integers with like and unlike signs. They finish the lesson plan by...

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

The second lesson in a series of 25 shows the class how to use arrows and a number line to add integers. Learners apply their knowledge of the commutative property and absolute value in their explanations. Classmates play the integer...

Is zero positive or is it negative? Are all positive numbers to the right of zero on the number line? Are all negative numbers to the left of zero on the number line? Are all positive numbers greater than zero? Are all negative numbers...

Duane uses a vertical number line to show learners how to add integers with the same sign. The vertical number line is an effective visual tool that will help viewers better understand exactly what happens when two positive or two...

As a follow up to his video on adding integers with the same sign, Duane created this shortcut video to make life easier. He tells learners they can ditch the number line and just add the absolute value of each number and attach the sign.
