Description: Comparing Integers in various scenarios. This deck focuses on comparing integers, a key skill in middle school math that helps students understand the value of positive and negative numbers. The question types build conceptual understanding and strengthen number sense through varied formats: 1. Basic Symbol Fill-in (<, >, =) Students compare two integers and insert the correct symbol to show their relationship. This reinforces understanding of number positions on the number line. 2. True or False Students evaluate statements involving integer comparisons. This format helps identify and correct common misconceptions about negative numbers. 3. Word Problems Real-life contexts such as temperature, depth, money, and elevation are used to help students apply comparison skills meaningfully and relate math to everyday situations. 4. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) Students choose the correct option from a set of comparisons. These build test-taking strategies and accuracy in identifying correct relationships. 5. Number Line Estimation Visual reasoning is emphasized as students compare integers based on their positions on a number line. This strengthens spatial understanding and number placement.
