Exploring Integers and Absolute Values

Mrs. Dalton introduces integers, their opposites, and absolute values. She explains that integers include positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero. Opposites are numbers equidistant from zero on a number line but on opposite sides. Absolute value is the distance of a number from zero, always positive. The video includes practice questions to reinforce these concepts.
