Today, we tried to understand how integers work by physically moving our bodies along a number line. In general, to add a positive number means to move to the right, while to add a negative number means to move to the left. Students understood these motions quite well. Subtracting was a bit more difficult to do, but, students soon got the idea. To subtract a positive number, move to the left. To subtract a negative, move to the right.
