Teach integers and number lines with this comprehensive and editable teacher slide deck, designed to explicitly teach how positive and negative numbers are located, represented and compared on a number line.

Built around the I Do, We Do, You Do model, this teacher slide deck provides a scaffolded pathway from explicit teacher modelling to guided exploration and supported application. Students investigate how integers extend beyond zero, represent real-world situations (including financial contexts), and compare the position and value of positive and negative numbers.

These teacher slides can be used independently. Note: Where the teacher slides reference printable independent activities, these are available in the full lesson bundle.

Through modelled examples, collaborative discussion and structured learning experiences, students locate, represent and compare integers on number lines, extend number lines into negative values, and apply their understanding to a range of authentic mathematical contexts.

What's included in this teacher slide deck?

• Clear learning intentions and success criteria focused on locating, representing and comparing integers
• Explicit teaching of positive and negative integers and their relationship to zero
• Modelled examples demonstrating how to extend and interpret number lines
• Guided practice comparing and ordering integers in a variety of contexts
• Built-in check-in questions to monitor understanding throughout the lesson

Perfect for upper primary classrooms, this teacher slide deck develops students' understanding of integers and number lines while building confidence representing, locating and comparing positive and negative numbers in mathematical and real-world contexts.
