Positive and Negative Numbers
as Quantities
1
Warm Up: Think, Pair, Share
OBJECTIVE: SWBAT understand that positive and negative numbers are used together
to describe quantities having opposite directions or values by using positive
and negative numbers to represent quantities in real world context.
Language objective: SWBAT verbally describe positive and negative
quantities within real world contexts.
At 8 am the temperature was -17 °F
degrees. At 3:00 pm the temperature was 22 °F degrees. Was it warmer or colder at

How would you represent 2 degrees above zero on the number line?
How would you represent -5 degrees below zero on the number line?

Let’s look at different situations. Read each question
carefully. Discuss with your partner what you notice? How
are these situations different or similar from the previous
ones?
• Kate had $10 in her
bank account and then
she withdrew $12
The temperature was
-15º F at 6am and then
rose 25º F
How can we represent these situations in a drawing? Can
you draw a picture of each situation using a vertical or
horizontal number line?

Launch: Continued
In this situation we are starting at______ on the
number line, which is different from the last examples
because we are not starting at zero on the number line.

HOMEWORK: Poster Activity
Directions: Design drawings to represent the following real life situations
involving positive and negative quantities.
- Read each problem carefully looking for key words
- Using a number line, draw a picture to represent the situation, be sure to
show the starting and ending places
- Be sure your posters are labeled and neat.
