Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
This is a one time class on solving word problems by performing operations with positive and negative numbers. This is an ideal lesson as an introduction or as a review for integers. Students will utilize problem solving abilities to determine what operations to use for each question.

The student will be given a printable worksheet with number lines that will be used during class. The worksheet can also be utilized for additional practice to do after the class is over. 

The following math concepts will be discussed:
Definition of negative numbers
Adding and subtracting integers
Multiplying and dividing integers

No grades or formal assessments will be performed in this course.

Learning Goals

Students will improve their understanding of positive and negative numbers and real life situations of calculating them. They will be able to perform basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) of both positive and negative numbers through the use of number lines and mental math.

Supply List
A one page worksheet will be provided. (It can be printed multiple times for additional number lines.)
