Young mathematicians explore integers. They review adding integers through engaging in mathematical labs. Each lab station is designed to reflect one of the multiple intelligences. Resources for all activities are provided.

Students add integers and use counters to create a visual. In this algebra activity, students work in pairs as they use the computer to add integers. They complete an assessment on adding integers at the end of the activity.

Your sixth and seventh graders deepen their understanding of a number line and adding integers in this concrete, hands-on activity. Learners play "Warehouse Puzzle" and then discuss their game strategies and the characteristics...

Students use the zero principle to add integers. In this algebra lesson, students add positive and negative integers verifying the zero principle. They use manipulatives to help them see how opposites can cancel each other out.

Can you add variables if you don't know their value? Using an empty number line, scholars first locate the position of the difference, sum, product, and quotient of two unknown integers. Later problems mix operations as well as add...

Ensure your classes aren't drowning in expressions. An interactive simulation has scholars change the depth of a fish based on the coefficient of terms. As they add the terms together, the fish bobs up and down until reaching the answer.

Students add integers using a number line. In this algebra lesson, students add one and two digit integers. They compare zero pairs and the addition of integers.

Learners solve integers using addition. In this algebra lesson plan, students add integers using counters. They define and label patterns created by integer operations.

Just because one integer is larger than another doesn't mean it will make sense right away. Go beyond note taking and show learners, through the use of algebra tiles and a Four-Pan Algebra Balance, how the numbers relate to one...

Students add and subtract integers. In this algebra lesson, students analyze integers using hands on manipulative. They solve problems of addition and subtractions using their signs correctly. They play a game of cards to reinforce the...

Groups plan their escape carefully. Three three-tiered puzzles help a story character escape their situation, each involving integer sequences, transformations, and geometric constructions. The teacher resource includes...

This unit on integers includes a pre-test, a post-test, four spreadsheets, and links to an interactive web-site to support the learning of integer operations. Access to computers and the Internet are imperative to this unit. The lessons...

There are three parts to this lesson on integers. In the first, learners explore positive and negative numbers on an actual painter's tape number line and by playing a "Hot Seat" game. In part two, they view a BrainPop video and work...

Could you develop your own way to add fractions with unlike denominators? An in-depth task has scholars examine a fictional conversation between several people in which they discuss a method of adding fractions with unlike denominators....

Students add and subtract integers. For this algebra lesson, students add, subtract, multiply and divide integers. They apply the properties of numbers as they solve equations.

Young mathematicians learn how scientific notation is meant to save time. Part 10, out of a series of 15, asks scholars to recognize the correct use of scientific notation and finish by adding and subtracting numbers using...

Students solve problems within-inequalities. In this algebra lesson, students apply concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve inequalities.

It's more than just numbers on a line, its an organizational, mental math machine to help learners understand the value of numbers. The tool is handy when introducing positive and negative integers to see their values and...

How are systems related? Build on your pupils' previous knowledge of solving systems of equations by introducing systems of inequalities. Learners explore similarities between systems of equations and inequalities to make a strong...

Students practice determining the value of cars. Using the internet, they complete a worksheet in which they list the make of each car and use the data to determine the value. They share their results with the class and identify the most...

Build an understanding of the powers of 10. Pupils investigate the results of raising 10 to positive and negative powers. They relate this understanding to the magnitude these powers represent in this seventh instructional activity of 15.

Develop an understanding of the properties of exponents through this series of activities. This third instructional activity of 15 explores the patterns associated with the power property. Scholars expand the powers before applying the...

Students subtract integers using counters. For this algebra lesson, students solve linear equations using an online tool. They use subtraction to isolate the variable.

Solving systems of equations with a twist! If you are looking for something out of the ordinary, then this is the problem for you. In this scenario, some money is found on the ground and you need to determine if it belongs in the cash...
