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...

Maintain a positive atmosphere in your math class with this fun lesson on adding and subtracting integers. After first explaining the rules for combining positive and negative numbers, this resource uses a comic strip...

Students solve word problems in which they add, subtract, multiply, and/or divide integers, identify rules and patterns for multiplying and dividing integers, create scenarios that represent each expression, and evaluate expressions.

In this simple worksheet, learners add and subtract positive and negative integers. Mathematicians plot the problem on a number line beside each of the 24 problems. You might want to white out the answers at the bottom of each page and...

Young mathematicians construct their own understanding of integers with an inquiry-based math lesson. Using colored chips to represent positive and negative numbers, children model a series of addition and subtraction problems as...

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...

Subtraction is all about opposites, and the fifth activity in a series of 25 introduces the concept of subtracting integers. Pupils connect subtracting with discarding a card in the integer game. They develop the rule for subtracting...

Middle schoolers use discs in order to add and subtract integers. There are manipulatives present so kinesthetic learners can access the curriculum. They also review the concept of the opposite of positive and negative numbers.

This thorough introduction to the concept of subtracting negative integers walk learners through the necessary steps using teacher modeling and guided practice. Number lines and various word problems are used to support understanding of...

In this signed numbers worksheet, students simplify equations by using the indicated operation. They add, subtract, multiply, and divide equations containing two to four positive and negative integers. Three of the 25 equations contain...

In this operation worksheet, students solve integer equations using one operation. The equations require students to add, subtract, multiply or divide positive and negative numbers. Most equations contain only two integers, but a few...

In this addition worksheet, learners add positive and negative integers and decimal numbers. All equations, except one, contain at least one negative integer. Students must determine the appropriate operation based upon the signed...

In this integer worksheet, learners add and subtract positive and negative numbers. Equations contain two to three terms with a mixture of finding the sum and difference of terms. This worksheet contains 44 equations.

Apply properties of operations to work with mixed numbers. The first of two lesson plans that focus on properties of operations works with mixed numbers and converting opposites of sums. Pupils work with properties of operations to break...

Need a unique approach to adding and subtracting polynomials? A helpful math lesson approaches the concept by relating polynomials to base 10. It encourages pupils to see each term as having a specific value, and therefore,...

In this math worksheet, students solve 15 problems in which positive and negative integers are added and subtracted. The answers are given in a separate column on the page.

In this radical worksheet, students add and subtract radicals containing positive and negative integers, variables, and exponents. They find the sum or difference for up to three terms in each equation. This worksheet contains 28 problems.

A thoroughly-written lesson plan and a plethora of worksheets about integers comprise this resource. Neophyte number crunchers learn to recognize integers, add and subtract them, and apply the concepts to the designing of a personal...

Upper elementary and middle schoolers practice solving addition and multiplication problems with positive and negative numbers. They use a number line initially to help find a solution.

Students explore how to add and subtract integers. In this integer lesson students are broken into groups and participate in an activity that helps them investigate how to add and subtract integers. 

Rules are meant to be broken ... but not integer multiplication and division rules. Learners use chips to model integer multiplication and division. The results of the activity help them develop integer rules for these operations.

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...

Pupils use blocks and markers to illustrate the processes of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers. In this mathematics lesson, learners use Algebra blocks to demonstrate multiplying polynomials.

Students add and subtract integers. In this algebra instructional activity, students discuss number sense as they sort numbers in the correct order. They analyze and label numbers differentiating between rational and irrational numbers.
