I can show how we use negative and positive integers to solve real life problems by creating my own word problem.
• I can write a math story that shows gain and loss.
• I can create an equation that solves the problem by using positive and negative integers.
• I can solve the equation by using the integer tool.
• I can check my answer by using my calculator.
• I share my math story with a peer and support the process by answering questions and referring the person to the appropriate section of the integer tool.

I wonder if we can brainstorm different ways of assessing this. I remember using a strategy called RAFT to create different assessment options that are student created. I think that would fit this assignment well. Students could make a persuasive video, powerpoint, advertisement, etc.
