Speedy Sliding

Prepare to slide by completing these activities:

1. Revise the directed number line.
   • Work with a partner to ask each other questions like ‘What number is 6 units to the right of –3?’ or ‘What number is 5 units to the left of +2?’
   • When you ask your partner a question, make sure that the answer is between –5 and 5.
   • When your partner asks you a question, you may draw a number line or use this interactive number line for help in finding the answer.
   • Challenge yourself (or your partner) to try to figure out some answers without needing to look at a number line.
   • As an additional challenge, ask questions that have answers between –10 and 10.
2. Revise the Cartesian plane.
3. Revise translations.
