The following video will demonstrate the concept of adding INTEGERS using the number line model. This model may help you visualize the concept of adding negative and positive numbers. Please click to watch this short video before moving on.
This video gives another concrete model for adding INTEGERS. This model is unique because it allows you to use manipulatives like chips or blocks to solve INTEGER problems. It's worth a look.
Now, finally, we come to the formal set of rules that will tell us the step by step process to solve INTEGERS. This way, we can save time by solving problems without the use of a number line or chips. This video uses a math term that may be new to you, so if you don't know what "absolute value" means, click here before watching the video.
