Thesis Statement http://www.neirtec.org/activities/applets/numberline.htm • The purpose of this lesson is to work on Big Idea #3 from the 7th grade Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS). • It says, • MA.7.A.3.1: Use and justify the rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, and finding the absolute value of integers. • This lesson will be divided into 3 parts • How we’ve been taught and How we are teaching. (2 Hours) • Hands-on Math and the CRA Sequence of Instruction (2 Hours) • A Process Does not Always Tell Us Why. (2 Hours)

Vocabulary Words That You Need to Know Addends, Sum, Minuend, Subtrahend, Difference, Factors, Products, Divisor, Dividend, Quotient, Mixed/Multiple Signs
What is -2 + 4? Start Here 4 The Answer is 2.
What is -2 + 2? Start Here 2 The Answer is 0.
What is -1 - 2? Start Here 2 The Answer is -3.
What is +5 + 4? Start Here … What do you think? The Answer is 9.
Mixed/Multiple Signs Mixed/Multiple Signs exist when two signs are together. An addition and a positive ++ An addition and a negative +- A subtraction and a positive - + A subtraction and a negative - - These problems are not difficult, they just need to be solved a little differently.
What is +2 + -4? Start Here 4 The Answer is -2.
What is -5 + +1? Start Here 1 The Answer is -4.
What is -3 + -4? Start Here … 4 What do you think? The Answer is -7.
What is +4 + +2? Start Here 2 I bet you know this one. The Answer is 6.
Principles/Hypothesis Formed When adding two integers and the signs are alike, you add and keep the sign. 2. When adding two integers and the signs are not alike, you subtract and take the largest numbers absolute value.
Principle When subtracting two integers, you keep the minuend, change the subtraction symbol to an addition symbol, and change the sign of the subtrahend to its opposite. Keep Change Change
Change to addition Keep -2 Take the opposite of -7 What is -2 - -7? What is -2 + +7? Start Here 7 The Answer is 5.
Change to addition Keep 5 Take the opposite of 7 What is 5 - 7? What is 5 + -7? Principle: When adding two integers, and the signs are not alike, you subtract and take the sign of the largest numbers absolute value. The Answer is -2.
Change to addition Keep 3 Take the opposite of -9 What is 3 - -9? What is 3 + 9 ? Principle: When adding two integers, and the signs are the same, you add and keep the sign. The Answer is 12.
Change to addition Keep -5 Take the opposite of -4 What is -5 - - 4? What is -5 + 4? Principle: When adding two integers, and the signs are not alike, you subtract and take the sign of the largest numbers absolute value. The Answer is -1.
Principle When multiplying two integers and the signs are alike, the product is positive. (+)(+) = (+) (-)(-) = (+) When multiplying two integers and the signs are not alike, the product is negative. (+)(-) = (-) (-)(+) = (-)
Why does a positive times a negative equal a negative? The Answer is -4. So a positive times a negative is a negative. Look at the pattern 4 • 3 = 12 4 • 2 = 8 4 • 1 = 4 4 • 0 = 0 4 • -1 = ?
But why does a negative times a negative equal a positive? Well, knowing a positive times a negative is a negative, also means that a negative times a positive is a negative, so again… The Answer is 4. So a negative times a negative is a positive. -4 • 3 = -12 -4 • 2 = -8 -4 • 1 = -4 -4 • 0 = 0 -4 • -1 = ? Look at the pattern
Principle When multiplying two integers and the signs are alike, the product is positive. (+)/(+) = (+) (-)/(-) = (+) When multiplying two integers and the signs are not alike, the product is negative. (+)/(-) = (-) (-)/(+) = (-)
Floors on Elevators This is an elevator panel with NEGATIVE numbers. How far many floors have you gone up if you start at the lowest floor and go to the highest floor? Set up the expression Explain your reasoning Solve the problem Answer: 17-(-2) = 19 floors
