Lesson Title: Adding Using Positive or Negative Integers. Time Allotted: 45 Minutes

Unit Title (if applicable): Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, and Dividing Single-Operation Problem with Positive
and Negative Integers.
Lesson Number w/in Unit: 1

Grade Level(s): 7th Grade

Subject Area(s)/Subject Content Mathematics.

I. LESSON FOUNDATION

Standard(s)/Anchors:
-CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1: Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction
to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical
number line diagram.

Essential Question(s):
-How do we determine the opposites when working with integers?
-How do we determine if the sum of two integers is negative or positive?
-What is the Additive Inverse Property?

Instructional Objective(s):
-Following the completion of the lesson on addition with positive and negative integers the students
will be able to complete 10 problems to 80% accuracy.

Formative Assessment:
Lesson Pre-Assessment: The students were given a preassessment on the addition and subtraction of
positive and negative integers. Students will complete a bell-ringer activity to assess background
knowledge and to introduce the lesson.

During-instruction formative assessments: The students will be given multiple practice problems after
teacher modeling. Students will complete practice problems. Upon completion of each problem,
students will hold their answers up in front of the camera. Following the practice problems, the
students will complete problems independently with immediate feedback from the teacher.

Summative Assessment:
Lesson Post-Assessment: The students will complete practice problems independently at the end of the
period before logging off. The following day, the teacher will review the answers and error corrections
will be made. The class will review the previous day’s lesson by completing the bell ringer. Following
the completion of two lessons the students will take a quiz.

Unit Summative Assessment (if applicable): Following the completion of the unit, students will take a
unit test. The students will demonstrate their understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication and
division of positive and negative integers by successfully passing the unit test.
II. LESSON BODY

TEACHING PROCEDURES:
1. Introduction: The students will complete a bell ringer introducing the rules of addition. They will
copy a visual chart presenting the rules of adding integers. To introduce the lesson and grab the
students’ attention, they will watch a brief YouTube video introducing the lesson.
2. Description of Method(s) Used to Present Subject Matter/Modeling:
a. First, I will instruct the students on how to recognize and identify when they have different
signs or the same signs. (Students will circle positive numbers and put a box around the
negative numbers.)
b. I will explain the rules of adding integers.
c. I will explain how to identify what sign is needed for their answer.
d. Lastly, I will model addition problems both with same sign as well as different sign
referencing the visual chart they copied during the bell ringer activity.
3. Guided Practice: Teacher will model the process. The students will have the opportunity to
complete problems on a whiteboard or sheet of paper under the supervision of the teacher and
share their responses with the class by holding up their answers in front of the camera.
4. Independent Practice: The students will be presented with multiple problems to complete. They
will be given the opportunity to walk the teacher through the correct steps to completing the
problems. This method also allows for immediate feedback for the teacher if an error is made.
5. Closure: Students will complete an exit ticket.

III. LESSON ESSENTIALS

Differentiated Learning Activities: The students will work collaboratively with the teacher through several
problems allowing the students to model the way the teacher is completing the problems as well as immediate
feedback from the teacher. Prior to the lesson starting the students will be prompted to make sure they have all
necessary materials at their side ready to work. The students will be able to work together to complete the
practice work. Providing the students with a number line visual aid to assist with completing the problems. The
students will be provided a visual integers rules chart to help them to remember the rules of addition.

Accommodations/Modifications: Small Group Setting, use of calculator, chunking, extra time, scaffolding,
modeling, guided instruction, tasks broken into smaller steps, drill and repetition, rephrasing, shortened
assignment, visual aides

Instructional Resources, Materials, and Technology: Laptop, Doc Cam, YouTube, Glencoe Math Course 2 Volume
One Book, Adding integers worksheet

IV. POST-LESSON REFLECTION

Analysis of Student Learning: Review and visually display the formative and/or summative assessment data collected
during your lesson. Analyze the results and report the evidence of student learning as related to the instructional
objective(s). Compare your pre- and post-assessment data. As a result of the data analysis, describe what you will do to
improve and/or enhance student performance.

Analysis of Teaching: Include modifications/recommendations of current instruction for future application on 1)

planning and preparation, 2) classroom environment, 3) instruction, and 4) professional responsibilities as related to
instructional objectives or standards.
