Scientific Notation Extra Curricular:
**Students can be challenged with going to the following websites to learn how to multiply and divide numbers in scientific notation.
1. How to multiply numbers in scientific notation: http://www.edinformatics.com/math_science/scinot_mult_div.htm
At the end of this website, it has a quiz for them to try and then they can go on to “How to divide scientific notation numbers”
2. Word problems using multiplication and division of numbers in scientific notation: http://www.edinformatics.com/math_science/scinot_mult_divc.htm
3. Website lesson on where students will learn about the Spitzer Infrared Observatory and a recently observed dust ring around Saturn through
reading a NASA press release and viewing a NASA video segment. Then students will use scientific notation to perform calculations to understand
the size, mass, and volume of dust and the new dust ring.
Website: http://spacemath.gsfc.nasa.gov/Modules/8Module3.html
4. Website lesson where students will create a spreadsheet that will calculate powers of three and powers of four. Students will format the
spreadsheet to express the numbers in a way that will help them form and verify a conjecture concerning the properties of negative and zero
exponents. Students will produce a final document that will display their spreadsheet. Website:
https://sites.google.com/site/ashfordtechlessons/ExponentsExcel
5. Website about United States Debt (clock in real time). Students can look at changing numbers and discuss with a partner on how we can help slow down the national debt. Website: http://www.usdebtclock.org/
