SOL OBJECTIVE 6.3- INTEGERS
- I can place integers on a number line.
- I can identify integer points on a number line. - I can order and compare integers using a number line and mathematical symbols (<, >, =, ≠ ). - I can determine and describe the absolute value of integers. - I can explain how negative numbers are used in real-situations. - I can explain how the absolute value of an integer and the absolute value of its opposite are related. |
Possible Misconceptions & Common Errors to Avoid- Students may use the magnitude of the number to compare and not consider the sign.
**For example, students may write -21 > -5 because 21 > 5 - Students may incorrectly locate integers on a number line, placing negative numbers to the right of zero instead of to the left of zero. |
