Maths worksheet: Negative numbers on a number line (2)

place_negative_ numbers 2_large

This is the second page on  placing negative numbers on a number line, probably most suited to year 4 children. It asks for an arrow to be drawn to the correct position on the number line for each of the numbers shown.

Once again try to use the term ‘negative number’ rather than ‘minus’ which should be used in the context of subtraction.

Counting up and down a number line, passing through zero is a great way to show how negative numbers work and children will need to have done this before trying this worksheet.
