Integer Challenge

integers · adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers

Add, subtract, multiply and divide integers concretely, pictorially and symbolically [7.N(NO).16].

Integer Challenge is a fast partner card game for Grades 6–8 built around signed-number calculations. Red cards represent negative values and black cards represent positive values; players reveal cards at the same time and race to state the correct result. The basic version emphasizes integer addition, while the structure can support other integer operations as students become ready.

Use it for quick fluency practice when students already understand the sign rules and need repeated mental computation. The speed element works best when accuracy remains the condition for winning each pair of cards. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate teacher-ready lesson support for Integer Challenge.
