Double Negatives
Double Negatives
Kids are often taught that ‘two wrongs don’t make a right’. However, in algebra this isn’t always true. Help your sixth graders remember the rules for adding and multiplying positive and negative numbers with this printable algebra activity. Kids are encouraged to think of real-world examples where two negatives make a positive as well as ones where two negatives make a negative. You can then discuss the examples as a class and see how they relate to the algebraic rules.
