  • Have class members write their answers to question six in preparation for a whole-class discussion

Classroom Considerations

  • A free Ck-12 account is required to open the interactive 
  • Pupils should be familiar with number lines, as well as positive and negative integers 

Pros

  • A color-coded number line has moveable parts to assist in solving equations 
  • When an incorrect response is chosen, the correct answer is provided 
  • Hints and additional information is available through clickable links 

Cons

  • None
