Description
Do your students understand how to add integers…until you teach them to subtract integers, and then they get all mixed up? This activity will help students make the connection between adding and subtracting integers and the number line.
If you have taught students about adding and subtracting integers on a number line, this card matching activity is the perfect follow-up! Students work to connect an equivalent addition problem, subtraction problem, answer number line, and verbal description (such as starts at 4, values decreases by 3). As students match these representations, it really helps them to see the connection between integer operations and be more successful with both adding and subtracting integers.
I like to copy these and have small groups of students work together to complete the matching activity. You could also use them as stations by putting the number lines up around your room along with copies of all of the other cards at each station and have students rotate. You could even make a relay out of it and have teams of students see which team can match them all first. After students finish the matching activity, you could also have them try to write a story problem to match one of the number lines.
Here’s what you will get with this resource: ✍6 sets of cards (each set has an equivalent number line, addition and subtraction integer problem, answer and verbal description) ✍Answer recording sheet for students ✍Exit ticket ✍Answer key ✍Printable and digital versions are provided
You are going to be so glad you took the time for this activity. Your students will be fully engaged in their learning, and it really helps cement the connection between a subtraction and addition problem. Plus the recording sheet could make a great addition to your students’ notebooks.
