About This Lesson

This is the first lesson in a math unit, Unified Understanding of Numbers. In this lesson, students will work with the values and ordering of numbers in the full system of rational numbers, which includes negative rational numbers, and in particular negative integers, to reason about the order and absolute value of rational numbers. This lesson was developed by Bev Voos using a Lesson Plan template chosen by the AFT Common Core cadre for lesson sharing. The Lesson Plan template is also included. CCSS alignment: 6.NS.5, 6.NS.6, 6.NS.7

CCSS.Math.Content.6.NS.C.5

Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.

CCSS.Math.Content.6.NS.C.6

Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates.

Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

Thank you so much for writing up this lesson. I do something similar in my 5th grade so I will make adjustments for my grade level and you have given me some beautiful tools to work with.
