Scientific Notation-Model

Students create a cross-cut model of an object that needs scientific notation for its scale based on its size. Aligns to Ok Process Standards, Grades 6-8 Process Standard 1: Problem Solving; 6. Use oral, written, concrete, pictorial, graphical, and/or algebraic methods to model mathematical situations. Process Standard 2: Communication; 1. Discuss, interpret, translate (from one to another) and evaluate mathematical ideas (e.g., oral, written, pictorial, concrete, graphical, algebraic); and 3. Select and use appropriate terminology when discussing mathematical concepts and ideas. Process Standard 4: Connections 1. Apply mathematical strategies to solve problems that arise from other disciplines and the real world. Grade 8 PASS: Standard 2: Number Sense and Operation – The student will use numbers and number relationships to solve a variety of problems; 1. Number Sense: Represent and interpret large numbers and numbers less than one in exponential and scientific notation.

	Excellent Artifact met all of the criteria and provided additional information. 5 pts	Good Artifact met all of the criteria 4 pts	Satisfactory Artifact met most of the criteria. 3 pts	Poor Artifact met little of the criteria. 2 pts	Unsatisfactory Artifact did not meet criteria. 1 pts
Content Accuracy 2.5 pts Model contains pertinent information applicable to the use of scientific notation in a real-world setting.	Excellent Section labels are typed and accurate and include both standard form and scientific notation measurements. An explanation for why the subject would be written in scientific notation is included.	Good Section labels are typed and accurate and include both standard form and scientific notation measurements.	Satisfactory Section labels are neat and accurate and include both standard form and scientific notation measurements.	Poor Section labels are neat and accurate but only include either standard form or scientific notation measurements.	Unsatisfactory Section labels are not typed/accurate include only standard form or scientific notation measurements, or none at all.
Presentation 2.5 pts The model LOOKS interesting. Viewers want to examine the artifact based on how it appears.	Excellent Volume no less than 9 cubic inches. Contrasting colors and at least five sections within the object are shown.	Good Volume no less than 9 cubic inches. Contrasting colors and four sections within the object are shown.	Satisfactory Volume no less than 9 cubic inches. Contrasting colors and three sections within the object are shown.	Poor Volume no less than 9 cubic inches. Contrasting colors and two sections within the object are shown.	Unsatisfactory Volume no less than 9 cubic inches. Contrasting colors and one section within the object is shown.
Paper/Process 2.5 pts Paper with definitions, examples, and process.	Excellent 300-400 word typed paper contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation along with 4 or more accurate conversion examples (standard to scientific and vice versa) using both positive and negative exponents.	Good 300-400 word written paper contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation along with 4 or more accurate conversion examples (standard to scientific and vice versa) using both positive and negative exponents. Must be legible.	Satisfactory Fewer than 300- or more than 400-word typed paper contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation along with 3 accurate conversion examples (standard to scientific and vice versa) using both positive and negative exponents.	Poor Fewer than 300- or more than 400-word written paper contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation along with 3 accurate conversion examples (standard to scientific and vice versa) using both positive and negative exponents. Must be legible.	Unsatisfactory Fewer than 300- or more than 400-word written paper missing a student-friendly definition of scientific notation and having fewer than 3 accurate conversion examples (standard to scientific and vice versa) using both positive and negative exponents. Must be legible.
References 2.5 pts A reference (website, magazine, etc) is provided for each image and fact.	Excellent All image and information references are typed in MLA format and provided on a separate sheet of paper.	Good All image and information references are in MLA format and provided on a separate sheet of paper.	Satisfactory Image and information references are in MLA format and provided on a separate sheet of paper. There are 3-5 minor errors in that information is missing, or the format is wrong.	Poor Image and information references are in MLA format and provided on a separate sheet of paper. There are 6-10 minor errors in that information is missing, or the format is wrong.	Unsatisfactory Image and information references are in MLA format and provided on a separate sheet of paper. There are major errors in either missing information or the format is wrong.
