Ray Ray and Kaitlyn helped us with learning how to add integers by dressing as Sumo Wrestlers. In order to solve an addition problem, we first have to decide if the problem represents "Fighting" (different signs) or "Cooperating" (same signs) sumo wrestlers. This helps us remember whether or not we are actually adding (cooperating) or (subtracting). Remember...When we are fighting the answer gets the sign of the "stronger" (larger absolute value) number.
