  1. Negative Numbers Using Negative numbers in context

  2. Name: Never heard it before word grid:

  3. Which of these calculations below show how to figure out the temperature change? Write these on your MWB. 3 + (-5) (-5) - 3 3 - 5 (-5) + 3

  4. Which of these calculations below show how to figure out the temperature change? Write these on your MWB. 11 + (-7) (-11) – (-7) 7 - 11 (-7) + 11

  5. 5 – ( - 11) Here is a calculation. Figure out the answer and write it on your MWB.

  6. Write the letter A, B or C on your MWB. 5 – ( - 11)

  7. Temperature Changes London +13°C Beijing −5°C Paris +22°C Vancouver −11°C

  8. Instructions for Working Together • Work together to place cards. • When it is your turn, connect two City Temperature cards using a Changes in Temperature arrow card. • Figure out any missing temperatures. • Explain your calculations. • If others in your group disagree, they should explain why. Then figure out the answer together. • When you have reached an agreement, write your solution in the box on the card.

  11. Challenge questions • Look back at your poster and see if you can answer these questions using • True / Never / Sometimes • Try to find examples to back up your thinking • Subtraction makes things smaller • Addition makes things bigger • Is there anything else you notice or know about negative numbers? • Can you use your temperature information to convince me that: • • -20 < -10 • • 5 – 20 = -15

  12. Sharing your posters • Share with another group, make sure someone from each group explains the reasoning behind their matches • If anyone is unclear then ASK! • Working together, consider changing any of your answers – You are responsible for each others learning • If you decide to change any answers, annotate your work with a different colour pen and write on your poster that this pen colour is a change

  14. Calculations • Write a calculation for each of the temperatures you have already written in the boxes • These sums should be written on the dashed lines • When you are finished, share your answers and explain them to another group

  15. Class Discussion • Write a calculation for each of the temperatures you have already written in the boxes • These sums should be written on the dashed lines • When you are finished, share your answers and explain them to another group
