  1. 3.71 x 104 = 37,100 Scientific Notation Written by: James Wiens Newton, Kansas

  2. Instructor Notes • Subject Area(s): Math • Grade level: 7th grade • Lesson Length: 50 minute class period • Synopsis: Use scientific notation to write very large and very small numbers. • Objective/goals: Students will change numbers from standard form into scientific notation and from scientific notationback into standard form.

  3. Instructor Notes • Standard: ▲equivalent representations of rational numbers and simple algebraic expressions, e.g., you are in the mountains. Wilson Mountain has an altitude of 5.28 x 103 feet. Rush Mountain is 4,300 feet tall. How much higher is Wilson Mountain than Rush Mountain?(KS standard 7.1.1.A1a) • Pre-requisite skills: Vocabulary – Standard form, Scientific notation, exponent, base number. • TurningPoint functions:standard question slides • Materials: All instructional points and practice problems are provided within the power point slides. Practice questions are designed to be used with the TurningPoint clickers.

  4. Lesson Outline • Warm-up: Exponents / moving decimal • Setting the Stage: Video lesson • Definitions / Key Concepts • Guided practice: Turning Point Questions • Independent practice: Paper & pencil • Closure: Write about scientific notation

  12. Definition • Scientific notation- is a compact way of writing numbers with absolute values that are very large or very small. • Glencoe McGraw-Hill. Math connects cours 3. pages 130-131

  13. Scientific notation to standard form- • Multiplying by a positive power of 10 moves the decimal place to the right. • Multiplying by a negative power of 10 moves the decimal place to the left. • The number of places the decimal point moves is the absolute value of the exponent. • Glencoe McGraw-Hill. Math connects cours 3. pages 130-131

  14. Standard form to scientific notation- Move the decimal point to the right of the first nonzero digit. Count the number of places you moved the decimal point. Find the power of 10. If the absolute value of the original number was between 0 and 1, the exponent is negative. Otherwise, the exponent is positive. Glencoe McGraw-Hill. Math connects cours 3. pages 130-131
