New Math Gizmo - Adding and Subtracting with Chips
It's been a busy year on the science side for ExploreLearning, but I'm happy to announce that we've uploaded a brand new math Gizmo...
Adding and Subtracting Integers with Chips
Using chip models can make adding and subtracting integers more visual and tangible for students... and with this Gizmo you can use chips without dealing with the post-lesson clean-up!
The trickiest concept that this Gizmo can help with is subtracting negatives. By using "zero pairs" in the Gizmo, students can really understand (rather than just memorize) why "minus a minus is a plus."
Enjoy... We hope this helps you and your students!
