Represent ratios using a variety of methods. Classmates combine the representations of ratios previously learned with the coordinate plane. Using ratio tables, equations, double number lines, and ordered pairs to represent...

Find the cards that get to zero. The activity introduces the class to the idea of adding integers. Pupils use a number line to count up and count down when adding. They play a game to collect cards that will sum to zero.

Learners solve addition and subtraction problems using strings of beads and number lines. They mentally perform addition and subtraction problems, and write and solve story problems involving whole numbers.

In this number line worksheet, learners complete four number lines by filling in the blanks counting forward and backwards as directed. Students find the missing numbers in two number lines.

A different way to look at integers is on this number line with variables in place of numbers. Learners are to look at different expressions and describe why they think the answer would be positive or negative, depending on the location...

Provide learners with a problem solving strategy to help them solve simple division problems and build a better understanding of the relationship between multiplication and division. They use a number line and jump up by the divisor,...

Introduce line plots, show examples of tables, graphing on a number line, and engage in a class discussion. Share the process by which statistical data is organized and displayed on a number line. Examples and worksheets are included....

Welcome to the backward world of negative numbers. This introductory lesson teaches young mathematicians that negative numbers are simply the opposite of positive numbers as they use number lines to plot and compare...

Using a number line, pupils are asked to identify which of four fractions is closest to one half. Includes a single problem that can serve as a practice problem or formative assessment for 3rd or 4th graders learning to partition number...

Have your class demonstrate their ability to compare fractions with this short multiple-choice assessment. Using the fractions 9/8 and 9/4, the young scholars first make comparisons using both words and the greater than/less than signs....

Do you want to use the resource? Absolutely. Scholars learn about absolute value and its relation to magnitude and distance on a number line. They compare numbers in context by applying absolute value. 

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.

Here is an attractive assignment that instructs learners how to compare more than one integer on a number line. After the lesson, three practice problems follow. They require learners to place integers on a number line and then order...

In this subtraction worksheet, students subtract one digit numbers using number lines. Students complete 10 subtraction problems.

Twenty-one pieces of tagboard can lead your class to a greater understanding of integers when you use them to form a human number line. After creating this math tool, two strategies for adding and subtracting will have your...

Here is an extensive set of teacher's notes to help you teach all about integers. Begin by introducing a number line and how it can be used to visualize positive and negative numbers. Talk about absolute value and the additive inverse...

First graders investigate numerals and size by ranking different numbers based upon value. In this number sense lesson, 1st graders practice using the terms smaller, larger, less and more in order to organize numbers on a number line....

Piece by piece young scholars build a basic understanding of fractions in a Common Core-designed elementary math lesson. Through a series of hands-on activities and journaling exercises, and with the help of multiple...

Arrange these in order on a number line: 95% 1/3 .700 3/5 5/6 50% .200 Was that too easy? Don't worry! This app gradually gets more difficult.

Count up or down to find sums. The third instructional activity in a 25-part series uses number lines to build an understanding of the sums of integers. Pupils make the connection between the distance and direction of a sum from the...

Have crumpets with the queen! Kindergartners count the number of crumpets on each plate - all add up to six - and write the correct number in the space provided. They then copy a dominoes pattern for different ways to add up to six, and...

Estimating the value of numbers is much harder than it sounds! Scholars compare and order the value of numbers presented in different forms including fractions, decimals, roots, integers, and pi. This builds on the previous lessons in...

High schoolers solve inequalities problems. In this algebra lesson, students graph the solution of inequalities on a number line. They discuss boundaries and open or closed intervals.
