🎯 WALT: We Are Learning To

Today we are learning to:

• Locate and compare integers on a number line
• Use a number line to add and subtract positive and negative integers
• Understand zero as the reference point between positive and negative values

📍 Part 1: Locating Integers

1. Look at the number line below. Circle the correct position for each integer.

Number line: -5 _____ -3 _____ -1 _____ 0 _____ 1 _____ 3 _____ 5

Where is -4 located?

Between -5 and -3

Between -3 and -1

Between 0 and 1

2. Compare these integers using < or > symbols:

a) -3 _____ 2

b) -1 _____ -5

c) 0 _____ -4

3. Which of these temperatures is the coldest?

5°C

-2°C

-8°C

0°C

➕➖ Part 2: Adding and Subtracting on the Number Line

4. Use the number line to solve these problems. Show your working by drawing arrows or steps.

a) -2 + 5 = _____

Start at: _____ Move _____ steps to the _____ End at: _____

b) 3 - 7 = _____

Start at: _____ Move _____ steps to the _____ End at: _____

c) -4 + 6 = _____

Start at: _____ Move _____ steps to the _____ End at: _____

5. Real-world problem: The temperature was -3°C in the morning. It rose by 8°C during the day. What is the afternoon temperature?

6. Extension Challenge: If you start at -6 and want to reach +4, how many steps do you need to take? Explain your thinking.
