Absolute Value of A Number

The document outlines a lesson plan on teaching absolute value to 7th grade students. It includes objectives, content, learning tasks, and a reflection section. The lesson introduces absolute value and representing it on a number line. Students work in groups to find the distance of numbers from 0 on a number line. They then practice finding the absolute value of different numbers. The lesson aims to help students understand and appreciate the real-life applications of absolute value.
