Wake up what you know, then explore today's model.

Activa lo que sabes y luego explora el modelo de hoy.

Predict which is greater, −7 or −3. Put the first location at −7 and the second at −3, and read the steps from the first to the second. Then swap the two locations. Write your prediction, your test, and your evidence. Explain how the direction of the steps tells you which number is greater.
What is the absolute value of −9?
- −9
- 0
- 1
- 9
Which integer has the GREATEST absolute value: −3, 7, −5, 2?
- −5
- −3
- 2
- 7
What is |0|?
- 1
- −1
- 0
- There is no answer

Use the hints when you need them. Every wrong answer tells you why.

Usa las pistas cuando las necesites. Cada respuesta incorrecta te dice por qué.

Stage 3 of 5Etapa 3 de 5

Tables, mistakes to find, and problems with a few steps.

Tablas, errores por encontrar y problemas de varios pasos.

Fill in the table
Three cities have temperatures of −12°F, −5°F, and 3°F. Which city is warmest?
- −5°F
- −12°F
- 3°F
- They are equal
Spot the Common Mistake
What is the best next move?
- Say −14 is greater, because 14 is greater than 8.
- Say the one farther left is greater.
- Place both on a number line and pick the one farther right.
- Put 0 at the left end and measure each number from there.

Show what you learned today. Take your time; you can try again.

Muestra lo que aprendiste hoy. Tómate tu tiempo; puedes intentarlo otra vez.

Which day was coldest?
- Thursday at −1°F
- Tuesday at 2°F
- Monday at −4°F
- Wednesday at −7°F
Which is colder, −4°F or −1°F?
- −4°F, because it is farther left on the number line
- −1°F, because 1 is smaller than 4
- They are the same
- −1°F, because it is closer to zero
Order the temperatures from coldest to warmest.
- −1, −4, −7, 2, 5
- 2, 5, −1, −4, −7
- 5, 2, −1, −4, −7
- −7, −4, −1, 2, 5
