Length of Lesson	60 minutes

Lesson Purpose

The purpose of this lesson is to name integers and rational numbers with their opposites as well as represent situations with integers and rational numbers using number lines, being able to describe 0 in each situation. Students will be learning skills needed by computer programmers, such as paying attention to detail and problem solving.

Lesson Objectives

At the end of this lesson, students will be able to order rational numbers in a number line identifying an integer and its opposite.

Student Target

“ I can use integers to represent quantities in real-world situations and I can explain where zero fits into a situation represented by integers."

CCR Focus Standards

Number and Ratios - Level D

6.NS.7
Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

Supporting Standards
