MATH IS EVERYTHING!!!!

Math is easy
Math is hard
Math is anything you’d want.

Math helps people
Math helps kids
Math helps everyone, it's like a gift

First you work from left to right
even when adding or subtracting it's alright.

If the signs are the same you add and keep the sign.
but if one is different you will get the getter sign.

If you remember this night and day I know that math will be your way

The importance of Integers in our everyday Lives

Whether you realize it or not, your life has revolved around numbers since the day you were born. Back then, your mother wanted to know how many pounds you weighed. When you were 3, you couldn't wait to be 4. In school, you lived and died by the percentages you got on exams and how many Valentine's Day cards you received.With this mind you will now know that numbers are very important in our lives.

We use integers in our lives because they are everywhere in our life and we use them all the time. We use them when calling someone or even reading a book. We use them in school and we need them daily in our lives, like in work, when you look at the clock, you read time which you are also looking at integers. Integers help us everyday in many ways. They are all around us!!!
