Scientific Notation-Instruction Card

Students create an instruction card that details how to write numbers in scientific notation. 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); 2. Reflect on and justify reasoning in mathematical problem solving (e.g., convince, demonstrate, formulate); and 3. Select and use appropriate terminology when discussing mathematical concepts and ideas. 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.

Content Accuracy 1 pts Instruction card contains pertinent information applicable to the use of scientific notation in a real-world setting.	Excellent Card contains more than 1 accurate use of scientific notation in a real-world setting. There are more than 8 accurate conversion examples using both positive and negative exponents. Card contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation.	Good Card contains 1 or more accurate use of scientific notation in a real-world setting. There are 8 accurate conversion examples using both positive and negative exponents. Card contains a student-friendly definition of scientific notation.	Satisfactory Card contains 1 accurate use of scientific notation in a real-world setting. There are 6-7 accurate conversion examples using both positive and negative exponents.	Poor Card contains 1 use--with only minor errors--of scientific notation in a real-world setting. There are 4-5 accurate conversion examples using both positive and negative exponents.	Unsatisfactory Card contains more than 1 or 0 uses--with major errors--of scientific notation in a real-world setting. There are fewer than 4 accurate conversion examples using both positive and negative exponents.
Instructional Effectiveness 1 pts Viewers understand the math involved in scientific notation (not limited to 'move the decimal).	Excellent More than 4 examples accurately model how to multiply figures to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Good 4 examples accurately model how to multiply figures to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Satisfactory 3 examples accurately model how to multiply figures to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Poor 2 examples accurately model how to multiply figures to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Unsatisfactory Fewer than 2 examples accurately model how to multiply figures to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.
Process 1 pts The instructions and examples are easy to follow. Viewers are able to correctly convert numbers from standard form to scientific notation, and vice versa.	Excellent More than 4 examples accurately model how to 'move the decimal' to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Good 4 examples accurately model how to 'move the decimal' to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Satisfactory 3 examples accurately model how to 'move the decimal' to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Poor 2 examples accurately model how to 'move the decimal' to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.	Unsatisfactory Fewer than 2 examples accurately model how to 'move the decimal' to convert from scientific notation to standard form and vice versa.
Presentation 1 pts The card LOOKS interesting. Viewers want to read the instructions based on how interesting/informative the card appears.	Excellent The card is at least 8.5" x 11" quality card stock. Contrasting colors and at least 4 graphics/images are used to give the card visual appeal. Text is easy to read.	Good The card is at least 8.5" x 11" quality card stock. Contrasting colors and at least 3 graphics/images are used to give the card visual appeal. Text is easy to read.	Satisfactory The card is at least 8.5" x 11" quality card stock. Contrasting colors and at least 2 graphics/images are used to give the card visual appeal. Text is easy to read.	Poor The card is at least 8.5" x 11" quality colored or construction paper. Contrasting colors and at least 1 graphics/images is used to give the card visual appeal. Text is easy to read.	Unsatisfactory The card is smaller than 8.5" x 11" and/or is on plain paper. There are few or no color/image elements. Text is easy to read.
