  1. Integers: A Traveling Trunk Project By LaTasha Arnold and Sara Busch

  2. Trunk Theme Integers • Adding, subtracting, dividing, and multiplying integers • Comparing and ordering integers

  3. Goals and Objectives Audience: 7th grade mathematics studentsPurpose:M7N1. Students will understand the meaning of positive and negative rational numbers and use them in computation. • a. Find the absolute value of a number and understand it as the distance from zero on a number line. • b. Compare and order rational numbers, including repeating decimals. • c. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide positive and negative rational numbers. • d. Solve problems using rational numbers.

  4. Inside the Trunk • Worksheets • Images • Artifacts (Math Manipulatives) • Print Materials • CD (digital files, movie, music, Poems)

  5. Instructional Activity Station Activity:Each station rotation will last for 25 minutes. This rotation will last for two days. • Station 1: Teacher station. The teacher will give a brief review of the integer rules and allow the students to complete a worksheet. The students will be allowed to use tile spacers to assist with problems. Once everyone has finished, they will review the answers as a whole. • Station 2: Playing cards. Students will be allowed to play integer war against each other. Students will also be allowed to practice problem solving by placing cards on math mat to form random problems • Station 3: Video/Music station. Students will watch the 4:00 long video about the integer rules. The students will then be given the opportunity to write their own song or script that describe the integer rules. • Station 4: Operation Integer: Students will be able to play board game to practice their skills.

  6. Challenges We thought that it would be easier to work together because we worked together. This proved to be wrong our biggest challenge was still time and syncing schedules. • CRCT remediation • Lack of planning time • Family

  7. Lessons Learned I think that the most important thing learned is that when you practice using software and hardware often, you do not find them intimidating and fairly easy to use. We both had experience with all of the tools and did not need to spend time learning how to use anything. We did not need to use much technology other than a computer or printer. However, the most challenging, if we had to identify one, would be the creation of the comic strip. We never had experience with the creation of one before that project. However, it was not as intimidating this time.
