In this integers worksheet, young scholars perform a summary of how to properly perform operation on integers.  Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations are shown with signed integers.  Dividing by zero is...

Middle schoolers use inverse operations to solve two-step equations. They study a story problem about inverse operations, watch a video about the problem, and complete a handout for the inverse problem. Pupils finish with two...

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...

Middle schoolers explore the concept order of operations.  In this order of operations lesson plan, pupils make a song about the order of operations in groups.  Middle schoolers practice working problems using order of operations.

Students, using algebraic operations, solve and check linear equations. At the beginning of class, they write a paragraph comparing the solving of math problems to solving real life problems. Students observe solving systems of two...

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...

Review with your young learners what opposites are and use a fun tag board game called Auntie Alice to practice. After the class plays the game, pairs work on computers practicing with interactive matching/flashcards/concentration games...

Bring balance to your lesson plans with an activity that asks individuals to solve one-step linear equations with inverse operations. Balance scales help learners understand the concept of isolating the variable.

Students spend this lesson discovering how electricity makes the appliances in their kitchen operate. In groups, they explain how energy is being converted in a microwave oven and practice giving others directions to how to use them. ...

Fifth graders solve equations. For this algebraic equations lesson plan, 5th graders use the inverse operation to solve an equation. The teacher reminds students to perform the operation on both sides of the equation. This lesson plan...

In this math worksheet, young scholars solve the problems that involve the operation of subtraction with integers. They change the subtraction to addition of the opposite.

In this mathematics worksheet, 6th graders subtract a number, add its opposite, and explain what opposites are, giving an example of two numbers that are opposites. Then they subtract each integer by adding its opposite.

Seventh graders engage in a lesson that is focused upon teaching the concept of integer numbers with a focus upon the integers. They practice solving different problems using positive and negative numbers. They then attempt to describe...

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...

Review operations related to rational numbers and integers using the include PowerPoint presentation, "Interesting Integers." Young mathematicians classify rational numbers as being natural, whole, or integers and read an article about...

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...

Prealgebrarians use colored chips, stickers, and pencils to explore the world of integers. They discover absolute value, compare positive and negative integers, and apply operations to them. A detailed procedure for the three-part...

Working in groups, the class will use what they know about whole number operations to solve a real-world problem involving a number line. They will focus on using the number line to correctly label the placement of whole numbers,...

Research was very different in the past. Pupils once had difficulty finding sufficient information, but now they have the opposite problem. Show your class how to pick the best resources out of the millions of sites an online search will...

High schooler math students review operations and solve linear equations using manipulatives--squares, cubes, circles, and cups. They transfer the operations performed on the manipulatives in equation form.

Learners investigate the muscle system operating in the kick of a ball. The order in which the six muscle groups contract is noted as the movement is produced by the contraction of opposing muscles required to move a limb in opposing...

Students investigate the concept of integers and how they should occur in the realm of irrational numbers. The lesson includes the use of positive and negative integers. The lesson is a good foundation in order to move into calculating...

Students explore magnets through the five lessons of this unit. The everyday uses of magnets and an awareness of magnetic attraction form the basis of the skills presented in these lessons.

Students prove conjectures about geometric figures on the plane or in space using coordinate geometry. They develop fluency in operations with real numbers, vectors and matrices using mental computation or paper-and-pencil calculations...
