Create a vocabulary square for the word ‘rational number.’ Display and analyze examples of number lines and picture representations of numbers. Assign each student a rational number and create a living number line with the rational numbers. Each student should explain why he/she chose his/her specific position on the number line.
Compose an essay from the perspective of any negative rational number. Explain why you are rational, where you are on a number line, how you are compared and ordered, and how you can be estimated. Provide students with a list of numbers. Students must determine which numbers from the list are negative rational numbers, and display those numbers on a number line.
