Giant Number Line Part 2

integers · Adding and subtracting integers using a number line

Giant Number Line Part 2 extends the Grade 6 integer work into addition and subtraction. Student pairs draw one positive and one negative number, write the resulting problem, solve it, and place the answer in the correct position on the giant number line from Part 1. The physical model lets students connect symbolic integer operations to movement and location on a number line.

This works well as whole-class partner practice once the number line has already been built. Because teams repeatedly return for new values, students get many examples while still having a visual reference available when they need it.
