Overview:

The classroom resource provides a video that describes integers and absolute value. After utilizing this resource, the students can complete the short quiz to assess their understanding

Content Standard(s):
Mathematics
MA2019 (2019)
Grade: 6
12. Explain the meaning of absolute value and determine the absolute value of rational numbers in real-world contexts.
Unpacked Content
Evidence Of Student Attainment:
Students:
  • Write, interpret, and explain the absolute values of the quantities.
  • Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order (students will use logical reasoning to explain how an account balance less than $30 represents a debt greater than $30).
Teacher Vocabulary:
  • Absolute value
  • Inequality
Knowledge:
Students know:
  • The meaning of absolute value and determine the absolute value of rational numbers in real-world contexts.
Skills:
Students are able to:
  • Understand that the absolute value of a number is the distance from zero in mathematical and real-world situations.
Understanding:
Students understand that:
  • the absolute value of a number is its distance from zero.
Diverse Learning Needs:
Essential Skills:
Learning Objectives:
M.6.12.1: Define absolute value and rational numbers.
M.6.12.2: Recall how to order numbers.
M.6.12.3: Give examples of the magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situations using absolute value.
M.6.12.4: Recognize the absolute value of a rational number is its' distance from 0 on a vertical and horizontal number line.

Prior Knowledge Skills:
  • Model writing ordered pairs.
  • Identify the x- and y- values in ordered pairs.
  • Label the vertical axis (y).
  • Label the horizontal axis (x).
  • Define ordered pair of numbers, quadrant one, coordinate plane, and plot points.

Grade: 6
13. Compare and order rational numbers and absolute value of rational numbers with and without a number line in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
Unpacked Content
Evidence Of Student Attainment:
Students:
  • Write, interpret, and explain inequalities that show order of the given numbers including absolute values of the quantities.
  • Given contextual and mathematical situations involving quantities that can be represented as positive or negative rational numbers including absolute values of the quantities.
Teacher Vocabulary:
  • Absolute Value
  • Inequalities
Knowledge:
Students know:
  • How to use and interpret inequality notation with rational numbers and absolute value.
  • Strategies for comparing and ordering rational numbers and the absolute value of rational numbers with and without a number line in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
Skills:
Students are able to:
  • Use mathematical language to communicate the relationship between verbal representations of inequalities and the related number line and algebraic models.
  • Distinguish comparisons of the absolute value of positive and negative rational numbers from statements about order.
  • Use number line models to explain absolute value concepts in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
Understanding:
Students understand that:
  • The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on a number line regardless of direction,
  • When using number lines to compare quantities those to the left are less than those to the right.
Diverse Learning Needs:
Essential Skills:
Learning Objectives:
M.6.13.1: Define rational number.
M.6.13.2: Plot pairs of integers and/or rational numbers on a coordinate plane.
M.6.13.3: Arrange integers and/or rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line.
M.6.13.4: Locate the position of integers and/or rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line.
M.6.13.5: Evaluate a statement about order using comparisons of absolute value.
M.6.13.6: Recall how to order positive and negative numbers. (Use number line if needed.).

Prior Knowledge Skills:
  • Locate positive numbers on a vertical number line.
    Examples: thermometer, map.
  • Locate positive numbers on a horizontal number line.
  • Locate negative numbers on a horizontal number line.
  • Label x- and y-axis and zero on a coordinate.
  • Illustrate vertical and horizontal number lines.
