Description
Thin-Slice Set: Rational Number Addition | Differentiated | Free
Try this free thin-slice problem set to help your students build fluency with adding rational numbers in a highly engaging, collaborative format.
Students work in groups of three on a vertical whiteboard, passing a single marker as they solve problems together. The problems are intentionally sequenced from easier to more challenging, allowing students to self-pace while still working toward the same learning goal.
This set progresses from:
- Multi-digit integer addition
- Decimal addition
- Fraction addition
- All with positive and negative numbers
The thin-slice structure naturally supports differentiation, encourages math discussion, and helps students build confidence as the problems increase in complexity.
This routine is inspired by classrooms that use vertical non-permanent surfaces and collaborative problem solving to promote reasoning and engagement.
