Unit 1: IntegersAlignment:In 5th grade students use all four operations when working with positive integers. In 6th grade students use positive and negative numbers to represent real world contexts; students place positive and negative numbers on a number line understanding that absolute value is a number's distance from zero; students reason with one variable expressions and inequalities. Math Journals: Math journals are implemented to promote my students' problem solving skills. Our math journals are a special place where we record and store our math thinking. Some attachments are included to help you get started. These include lists of prompts and different components that you can add to your students' math journals.
