Dear Girls and Boys,
Now that you have a feel that all numbers have a sign attached to them, I hope you can see or understand that some numbers - integers - don't actually have signs. Some positive integers do not have a sign, but they are assumed to be positive.
All negative numbers have their signs.
Another major idea is that positive, adding, more than, etc.... are all the same. And negative, subtracting, take away, etc.... are all the same too. Mind blowing right?
In these lessons, you will be looking at the signs of the number - they are either both the same (- -) or (+ +). With the same signs, there are 2 rules - add the digits and add the sign. Well, we are embarking on 3 signs! These are used VERY FREQUENTLY, and are also very important- they will be entered on your Grapher Organizer as well.....
In this section of Triple Signs, there are still 2 rules to follow to solve problems. Make sure you watch the videos and ask questions.
As always in MATH,
Mrs M
