Quick Start Expectations1. Write in your planner and stamp sheet:

1. Homework: Toeing the Line WS

2. Warm-up

Extending the Number System

Positive Numbers:Numbers to the right of zero on a number line

Negative Numbers:Numbers to the left of zero on a number line

Opposites: Every positive number is paired with a negative

opposite, which is the same distance from zero but in the opposite direction

Example: +4 opposite is -4Can you think of another example?

Integers:Whole numbers (positives) and their opposites (negatives) and zero!

Rational Numbers:Positive and negative integers and positive and negative fractions

Example: +1/2 and -1/2Can you think of another example?

InequalitiesWhen do we use?

To show when two values (numbers or variables) are not equal

What do they look like and what do they mean?> greater than< less than

(Please note…there are more than two inequalities!)Example:

- 8 < -6 We read this as “negative eight is less than negative six.”Can you come up with a “greater than” example?

In the book, as a group

Task: • 1.) Read pg. 8 as a group.• 2.) Answer Problem 1.1 A-C in your journals.• 3.) Check your answer to C with another group• 4.) Record your groups answer to C on the

class data chart

• While you wait for the rest of the class, you may start your homework: Toeing the Line WS
