About this resource
This quiz focuses on adding integers through real-world word problems, targeting 7th grade mathematics students. The problems require students to understand positive and negative integers as they relate to gains and losses, deposits and withdrawals, temperature changes, and directional movement. Students must demonstrate proficiency in translating contextual situations into mathematical expressions using integers, understanding that losses, withdrawals, decreases, and downward movements are represented by negative numbers while gains, deposits, increases, and upward movements are positive. The core mathematical reasoning involves recognizing when to add positive integers, when to add negative integers, and how to add integers with different signs. Students need to understand absolute value in the context of distance, interpret mathematical expressions in real-world contexts, and perform accurate integer addition calculations while maintaining awareness of what their mathematical results mean in the original problem context. Created by Jason Hill, a Mathematics teacher in the US who teaches grade 7. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for reinforcing integer operations after initial instruction, providing students with meaningful practice that connects abstract mathematical concepts to everyday situations they can understand and relate to. Teachers can implement this quiz as a formative assessment to gauge student understanding before moving to more complex integer operations, use it as homework to reinforce classroom learning, or deploy it as a warm-up activity to review previously taught concepts. The variety of contexts—from sports and banking to temperature and elevators—ensures students see the broad applicability of integer addition in real life. This assessment directly supports 7.NS.A.1 and 7.NS.A.3, as students apply and extend previous understandings of addition to add rational numbers and solve real-world problems involving the four operations with rational numbers.
