Battle to the Death: Adding Integers

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Young scholars explore the concept of adding integers.  In this adding integers lesson, students simulate the battle of the 300 spartans at Thermopylae.  Young scholars use colored game pieces to represent positive and negative numbers.  Students 'battle' by exchanging pieces with classmates; whoever has more pieces wins the battle.  Young scholars are on teams of positives versus negatives.
