Christmas WS's!
Number line games
Draw a large number line: Use the floor or a wall to make a giant number line with masking tape or chalk.
Jump on the line: Call out an integer (e.g., -3 or +4), and have students move to that position.
Adding and subtracting with jumps: Ask students to start at a certain number and then move left or right based on addition or subtraction.
Integer war (card game)
Materials: Deck of playing cards (assign red cards as negative and black cards as positive).
How to play: Each player draws two cards, finds the sum, and the player with the higher sum wins that round.
This activity helps in visualizing adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers.
Real-life situations
Temperature Changes: Discuss temperatures below and above zero, using different cities' temperatures as examples.
Bank account balance: Talk about deposits (positive integers) and withdrawals (negative integers).
Integer addition and subtraction puzzles
Create puzzles: Set up simple puzzles where students have to find missing integers to complete the equation (e.g., -3 + __ = 2).
This reinforces understanding through hands-on problem-solving.
Integer word problems
Create word problems related to daily life, such as sea level changes, elevator movements, or bank account transactions.
Example: "If you have $50 and you spend $30 (represented by -30), how much do you have left?"
Classroom battleship with integers
Set up a grid like the classic Battleship game but with both positive and negative coordinates.
This helps students become familiar with plotting integers on a coordinate plane.
Integer bingo
Prepare bingo cards with different integer expressions (like -4 + 3 or -2 - 5).
Call out the resulting values, and students mark off the correct answer on their cards.
