Description
In this project students apply their knowledge of adding integers to create a school store. They will choose items that will be a part of their store and assign prices. Using their store items, they will write a ten step story. Each step indicates a situation where adding positive or negative integers will be needed. Students write an equation that represents that step in the story.
For example:
Carl owed his mom $27. So he decided to get a job in order to pay her back. On his way to the pet store to apply for a job as a dog groomer, he found a dollar bill.
-27 + 1= -26
This is a digital and print resource with an example included.
