TGIF!

It's almost Friday!

For homework, students have a review sheet on scientific notation to complete as I know that some students are having difficulty with this concept. For some extra information on how to do the questions, check out the aaamath website. It even has an online practice activity for more reinforcement.

Another website that explains how to write scientific notation quite clearly is here.

In addition to scientific notation, the quiz tomorrow has questions on:
- Rounding Numbers
- Writing numbers in different forms (expanded form, standard form)
- Ordering and comparing numbers
- Understanding place value (ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, etc.)

I hope everyone has a great night. Let me know if you need more help with scientific notation and I'd be happy to spend some extra time before or after school next week.

See you tomorrow!
