Temperatures: Order from coldest to hottest

In this worksheet we will put the temperatures in order.

Example

Put these temperatures in order (coldest number first). 

 -5°  -3°  2°  -4°  -1° 

Answer 

When we think of the number line -5 is the coldest temperature on the number line.

(every number moving from the left of 0 is getting colder!)

          -5          -4          -3          -2          -1          0          1          2          3 

-5 °C is the coldest temperature and 2 °C is the hottest temperature.

The correct order is:

 -5°  -4°  -3°  -1°  2°
