8th Grade: Scientific Notation
An 8 day Common Core and Next Generation-Aligned Scientific Notation Unit including scientific notations, adding and subtracting with scientific notation, and multiplying and dividing with scientific notation. The prerequisite to this unit is Exponent which focuses on properties of exponents. Students will practice with both skill-based problems, real-world application questions, and error analysis to support higher level thinking skills. You can reach your students and teach the standards without all of the prep and stress of creating materials! The unit includes a pretest/diagnostic, a quiz and a posttest. Standards: 8.EE.1, 8.EE.3, and 8.EE.4
Unit Overview include essential questions, big ideas, vertical alignment, vocabulary, and common misconceptions. A pacing guide and tips for teaching each topic are included to help you be more efficient in your planning.

CCSS8.EE.A.1
Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions. For example, 3² × (3⁻⁵) = (3⁻³) = 1/3³ = 1/27.
CCSS8.EE.A.3
Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 × 10⁸ and the population of the world as 7 × 10⁹, and determine that the world population is more than 20 times larger.
CCSS8.EE.A.4
Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been generated by technology.
