For example: Graph the opposite of -10 on the number line.
Solution:
Opposite numbers are the same distance from 0, but on the other side.
The opposite number of -10 is 10.
Therefore, the graph after plotting 10 is shown below:

6th Grade students learn about opposite numbers and how to plot them on a number line. Teachers can provide "Identify Opposites on a Number Line Worksheet" to the students to develop their understanding of opposite numbers. In this worksheet, the given number is already plotted on a number line and the students are asked to plot the opposite of the given number on the number line.
