Integer Rules

 


Integer rules can be tricky for students as they learn positive and negatives.   A few years ago, the 6th grade teachers were talking about teaching the fox face to help the students learning integer multiplication and division signs.  This year, I'm teaching 6th graders and this has definitely been helpful.  If your students are struggling with positive and negatives when multiplying or dividing check out this video for a quick method to help them.

Gimkit Don't Look Down

Gimkit came out with a new mode almost a week ago and the students love it.  It's called Don't Look Down.  In this mode, students work to reach the 6 different summits.  Along the way they jump on various objects and test their skills.  This game can teach you about your risk takers and your cautious students.   If you want to add extra excitement, play with your students to see who gets higher.  This is currently the favorite mode for my classes and I'd recommend giving it a try if you haven't.
