Sixth graders were tasked with figuring out how to subtract integers. Each group of students were given a type of subtraction problem and they were required to figure out how to teach the rest of the class how to solve that. They were required to find at least two ways to solve the type of subtraction problems. The posters were shared and displayed in class. It was great to see the creative ways the students were able to apply what they already know about integers to make sense of subtracting integers.
