Each worksheet has 10 word problems estimating an integer result from a starting value and a change.
About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 10 word problems estimating an integer result from a starting value and a change.
This worksheet puts integer estimation where negative numbers actually occur - a temperature below zero, a depth below sea level, an overdrawn account, a golf score under par. The change is described in words rather than printed as a signed number, so the student has to decide the sign before estimating anything. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Read a starting value and a change from a story.
- Decide whether the change is positive or negative.
- Estimate the result.
Everyday practice
- Estimate a temperature after a drop below zero.
- Say what a negative balance means.
- Decide if a change should be added or subtracted.
