Adding and Subtractting Integers: A Flow Chart



The seventh grade is in an integers unit. Some are still having a hard time keeping the procedures straight. On Friday, we created a flow chart which served to further illustrate the process. This exercise and the resulting visual, served as the catalyst for the AHA! I GET IT! experience for a number of the students.

May I have permission to use this Flow chart in an online course addressing teaching techniques for struggling math learners? I would like to credit it in a general way to protect the students' identity: "Created by struggling math students in New Hampshire, used with instructor permission."
