Integers Review

Materials:
Paper, pencil, deck of cards, Solving Integers w/ Models handout, Powerpoint.

Goals / TEKS / Objectives

1. Goal(s):
Review operations with integers.

2. TEKS/STAAR:
6.3(D) add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers fluently

3. ELPS:
74.4. (c) (2) (D) monitor understanding of spoken language during classroom instruction and interactions and
seek clarification as needed;
4.

Lesson Objective(s):
To master adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers.

5. Prerequisite Skills:
Students should know how to add and subtract natural numbers.
Should know the meaning of integers.

Sponge / Focus

1. Sponge (warm-up):
Five questions that practice different operations.

2. Focus:
Playing a card game.

Rationale/ Connections:
Connections:In movement, temperature, and money. Movement can be related to yards lost and gained in football,
temperature can be related to an increase or decrease in climate, and money can be related to withdrawing and depositing.

Teaching Strategies or Methods:

Teaching Strategy or Method: -Cooperative Groups

Teachers Role: -Instructor

Students Role: -Participant
Classroom Layout: -In groups of 4
Higher order thinking strategies:
Questioning strategies: They must understand the concepts. They must apply these rules in order to participate.

Activities:
Part I: Integers Frayer Model Powerpoint will interact with students.
Teacher will go through with students as they write down the information the PP is providing.
The notes in the Integers Frayer Model PP will be used throughout the lesson as a reminder.
Part II: We will work on the Integers with Models handout. The teacher will
model one of each problem and students will then answer the remaining problems with their
shoulder partner.
Part III: Students will be put in groups.
Students will play 3 rounds of adding, subtracting & multiplying integers (one round of each
operation).
Teacher places cards in the middle of the groups table.
Black = Positive, Red = Negative
A = 1, J = 11, Q = 12, K = 13
Each student will receive 2 cards off the deck.
Students will find the sum of their cards and write on their answer document. The student with the
highest sum wins their respective points.
Continue until cards run out.
One player shuffles the cards and the group will find the difference. For the last round, the group
will find the product.

Evaluation:
Students are required to demonstrate their fluency in adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers through the
handout and the card game.

Closure:
Give students 2 numbers provided by a deck of cards. Example: 4 spades and 6 hearts. They will perform all four
operations using the two cards.

Accommodations/Modifications/Extensions:
Leave reminders of how to do operations.Group work for students who need help.
