Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Grade/Age Group

Year/Grade 6

Subject

Mathematics

Duration

30 minutes

Class Size

20 Students

National Curriculum Alignment

This lesson aligns with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards for middle school mathematics, focusing on number systems, operations, and real-world applications.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 min	Briefly introduce negative integers. Use real-life examples (e.g., temperature) to explain.
2	Number Line Overview	5 min	Display a number line. Show the placement of negative integers and how they relate to positive ones.
3	Guided Practice with Comparisons	10 min	Give students worksheets to compare pairs of negative integers. Discuss answers as a class.
4	Addition and Subtraction	5 min	Introduce rules for adding and subtracting negative integers. Provide examples on the board.
5	Independent Practice	4 min	Distribute problems that require addition and subtraction of negative integers.
6	Homework Assignment Explanation	1 min	Explain homework (practice problems) to reinforce lesson concepts.

Homework

• Complete a worksheet on negative integers that includes identifying, comparing, and basic operations. This will be checked for completion at the next class, but there will be no student presentations required.

Assessment

• Formative assessment through observation of participation during group activities and independent practice.
• Collection of homework for mastery assessment without the need for presentations.

Adaptations

• Provide additional support and resources for students who may struggle with the concept.
• Offer advanced problems for students who grasp the concept quickly.

Closure

• Recap the main points of the lesson and answer any questions from students.
• Remind students of the real-life applications of negative integers.
