6. 2. SELECT COMMON CORE STATE STANDARD TO TEACH. Example: Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation. Example: Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two numbers on a number line diagram.For example, interpret -3 > -7 as a statement that -3 is located to the right of -7 on a number line oriented from left to right.
