Adding and Subtracting Integers with T-Charts

The video tutorial introduces the T-chart strategy for adding and subtracting integers. It provides three examples: adding two positive integers, subtracting a negative from a positive, and handling mixed operations. The tutorial emphasizes keeping track of signs and using the T-chart to simplify calculations. It concludes with encouragement to practice and check solutions online.
