Positive and Negative Numbers Worksheet

Are your students in need of additional practice with word problems and comparing positive and negative numbers

Word problems are important because they help students apply math concepts to real-world situations, which can make the material more meaningful and easier to understand. They also help students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are valuable in both academic and professional settings. Additionally, word problems can be used to assess a student’s understanding of mathematical concepts and their ability to apply them in new situations.

Teach Starter has created a worksheet where students will solve 11 problems where students must analyze real-world problems to compare and order integers.

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!
