While looking for inspiration, I constitute a lot of creative illustrations of the real number system. But, I was looking for something a piffling different. I wanted my students to add the information.

And, for my older students, I wanted them to even observe some of the information themselves before we added it to the graphic organizer as a class.

So, I created my ain existent number system graphic organizer that would run across all my needs.

For my Algebra 2 students, I program to give my students strips of numbers. Each strip will stand for to one of the subsets of the real numbers. It will not exist labeled nonetheless. I want them to take these numbers and try to effigy out how they nest on to the graphic organizer.

I'm hoping that they will discover for themselves that every natural number is a whole number, every whole number is an integer, etc.

I ran across this in a pile of math resources I was given. Something to think about:

I am using interactive notebooks with my Algebra i and Algebra 2 students. So, I plan to accept students glue the real number system graphic organizer in their INBs.

Real Number System Graphic Organizer for Math Interactive Notebooks

I want the students to outline the boxes with colored pencils to emphasize the fact that everything within the red box is an integer, even the whole numbers and natural numbers.

Frayer Models for Definitions of Real Number System

So far, I but have definitions (Frayer Model) and a few examples. Obviously, my final draft and sample notebook volition exist neater. And, the rational numbers and irrational numbers are merely a unlike color because I already had some printed on colored paper.

In real life, they would either exist all white or all different colors. Trying to overcome my perfectionism here…

In 2013, I used the same graphic organizer for the real number organisation, simply nosotros filled it out slightly differently. Information technology felt good to be able to reuse something from terminal year instead of creating something entirely new from scratch!
