To get students up to speed with essential skills is always a good idea!

This resource (a task with complete key) guides students through three different real-life ways to think about adding and subtracting integers. Students have to do all three methods and will hopefully all get to one way that is their favorite and one that consistently gets them to correct answers.

This resource works great as ...

• an assessment exercise
• a task
• independent work
• distance learning
• math stations
• math centers
• homework
• constructive group work when introducing the topic.

You must also get these resources on Integers as well!

Addition and Subtraction of Integers (with Parentheses) is an important T-junction in the life of students. To help them think in real-life ways about this important but abstract topic is very important. This product includes notes and a 62-problem task with complete key on problems such as 9-(-6). Students should think about adding and subtracting in at least the following three ways:

• Money
• Temperature
• The Number Line

Money - Positive numbers and addition is having money or earning it and negative numbers and subtraction means being in debt or spending money.

Temperature - Positive numbers and addition is temperatures above zero or getting warmer and negative numbers and subtraction means it is below zero or getting colder.

Number Line - Positive numbers and addition is movement to the right and negative numbers and subtraction is movement to the left. (You always start at zero and you do also count zero in the steps)

I have been teaching Integer addition and subtraction since 1994. I have tried every method under the sun - this method works best.

Fractions are tough, unexciting and abstract. This 6-page task (with complete key), makes them practical, easy and applicable to real life.

Students will practice the skills of

• equivalent fractions
• comparing fractions
• adding fractions
• adding mixed numbers
• getting common denominators
• using ratio to compare mm to inches.

The task can be used well for

• review in later grades
• group work
• an end of unit assessment
• work (problem) stations
• homework (with mom and dad in the work shed)

You may find this resource equally interesting, also on Fractions.

This classroom tried and tested data and statistics activity helps students to see the benefit of gathering their own quantitative and qualitative data to make real-life choices. We have all wondered - which water container should I buy? Are the expensive water containers really that much better? Students compare 4 water containers quantitatively for how effectively they keep water warm and cold. They also compare them qualitatively, looking at price, durability, design and other subjective measures.

This resource works great as ...

• a task
• a class project (it takes roughly a week)
• distance learning
• math centers
• constructive group work when introducing the topic of data and statistics.

And, Now with the Olympic Games just gone by, you must get these other activities for Data and Stats as well!
