This resource covers the 6th grade Common Core standards:
6.NS.C.6a Recognize opposite signs of numbers as indicating locations on opposite sides of 0 on the number line; recognize that the opposite of the opposite of a number is the number itself, e.g., -(-3) = 3, and that 0 is its own opposite.
6.NS.C.5 Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values; use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.
6.NS.C.7c Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation.
Reviews for other Doodle Math products or pixel art products…
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Christine M. - I put this out as an extra credit assignment...The students who chose to do it seemed to enjoy the "doodle" part because it was different than a typical color by number task. Thank you!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Micaela F. - “Great resource and activity!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Megan F. - “My kids loved being able to combine their love of art with our current math skill. It was challenging and fun at the same time.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Teachertom (TpT Seller) - “My students loved this and the timing was perfect!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The Classy Teacher - "I used these with my accelerated 6th grade class. It was definitely challenging for them, but opened the floor for some great discussions and I think helped deepen their understanding of constant of proportionality."
