In lesson 1 of this unit, students will explore what it means to be connected to other people with and without digital technology. They'll also start to consider the ways that their digital connections shape who they are.

With this activity, students use integers to solve problems about times in different world time zones.

In this lesson, students solve division problems by changing them into multiplication problems. They then use the relationship between multiplication and division to determine the sign when dividing positive and negative numbers in general.

With this activity, students solve a puzzle by using clues about the temperatures and temperature changes between several cities.

In this lesson, students use properties of multiplication to prove that the product of any two negative numbers is positive and the product of a positive number and a negative number is negative.

In this module, students consider the guiding question: How do writers capture a reader's imagination? as they take a deep study of the classic tale Peter Pan.

With this activity, students assemble triangular puzzle pieces by matching the problems and answers on their sides. When the puzzle is complete, the pieces will form a large hexagon.

In this lesson students use a Hot Air Balloon simulation to model integer subtraction. They then move to modeling subtraction on a number line. They use patterns in their work and their answers to write a rule for subtracting integers.

In this lesson, students use number lines to solve addition and subtraction problems involving positive and negative fractions and decimals. They then verify that the same rules they found for integers apply to fractions and decimals as well. Finally, they solve some real-world problems.

In this lesson, students learn the definition of rational number, and they write rational numbers as ratios of integers and as repeating or terminating decimals.

This resource includes a quiz which focuses on Reading Literature standard 4. Students will read excerpts of poetry to responding to multiple choice questions. The activity also includes one open-ended response question.

This resource includes a short quiz which focuses on Reading Information standard 1. Students will read an excerpt from King's Letter from Birmingham Jail and respond to open-ended questions. Students are tasked with using textual evidence by citing specific lines.

This resource includes a quiz which focuses on Reading Information standard 3. Students will read an excerpt and respond to the open-ended questions.

This resource includes a quiz which focuses on Reading Information standard 4. Students will read an excerpt and attempt to define vocabulary within context using available clues. Students are tasked with citing specific clues.

This resource includes a quiz which focuses on Reading Information standard 7. Students will read an excerpt pertaining to global warming before attempting to answer open response questions.

This resource includes a short quiz which focuses on Reading Informational standard 8. Students will read the excerpt taken from a blog and respond to four open response questions.

This resource includes a short quiz which focuses on Reading Informational standard 9. Students will read an excerpt from "The Gettysburg Address" and respond to three short questions.

In this lesson, students will continue to apply their understanding of compound independent events. They will calculate probabilities and represent sample spaces with visual representations.

In this lesson, students use number lines to represent products of a negative integer and a positive integer, and they use patterns to understand products of two negative integers. Students write rules for products of integers.
