Negative Numbers Task Cards — Adding and Subtracting Integers (24 Cards)

Build confident integer skills with these 24 print-and-go task cards covering adding and subtracting negative numbers. Each card presents a single, clearly formatted problem — mixing the addition and subtraction of negatives — so students can focus on applying the two core rules without distraction.

The set includes both a color version and a black-and-white version, a recording sheet for student answers, and a full answer key. A detailed teacher's guide is also included, with lesson sequence suggestions, modelling language, common misconceptions and corrections, support strategies for struggling learners, and extension ideas for early finishers.

The cards use number line thinking as the anchor strategy: adding a negative means moving left; subtracting a negative means adding. Problems progress from straightforward calculations to those producing negative answers, giving students practice across the full range of difficulty.

What's included: 24 task cards (color + black and white), recording sheet, answer key, and teacher's guide. Ready to print, cut, and use.

Perfect for: maths centres, partner work, early finisher tasks, intervention, and whole-class review. Suitable for grades 4–7 / ages 9–13.

The font used is Calibri, which is considered Dyslexia-Friendly. It has clean, simple letter shapes and clear spacing, making it highly readable for individuals with dyslexia. It has noticeably wider letter spacing than many other fonts.
