    Mathematics (2019) Grade(s): 6

    MA19.6.13

    Compare and order rational numbers and absolute value of rational numbers with and without a number line in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.

    Unpacked Content

    UP:MA19.6.13

    Vocabulary

    • Absolute Value
    • Inequalities

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • How to use and interpret inequality notation with rational numbers and absolute value.
    • Strategies for comparing and ordering rational numbers and the absolute value of rational numbers with and without a number line in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • Use mathematical language to communicate the relationship between verbal representations of inequalities and the related number line and algebraic models.
    • Distinguish comparisons of the absolute value of positive and negative rational numbers from statements about order.
    • Use number line models to explain absolute value concepts in order to solve real-world and mathematical problems.

    Understanding

    Students understand that:
    • The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on a number line regardless of direction,
    • When using number lines to compare quantities those to the left are less than those to the right.
