Good afternoon, Grade - 7 Rose! Good afternoon, Ma’am Hines. It’s our
pleasure to see you today!

It’s my pleasure, too. May I request the

officer of the day to lead us in prayer? Yes, Ma’am. Let us put ourselves in the holy
presence of God and make the sign of our
faith.

Okay now, let’s check your attendance.

You may raise your hand and say “Present”
as I call your name. Is _______ around? _______ present, Ma’am.

Okay, so no one is absent. Keep it up

always Rose. So how is everyone? We’re doing great, Ma’am!

That’s good to hear.

Engage (2 MINUTES) Now, before we continue our lesson, let us
have a quick review of our topic yesterday.
Can anyone remind me what rational
numbers are? Raise your hand if you want
to answer.
Yes, _______? Rational numbers are numbers that can be
expressed as a fraction, Ma’am.
That's correct! Now, how about powers of
10? Who can give me an example?
Yes, _______? Powers of 10 are numbers like 10, 100,
1,000, and so on, Ma’am.
You are right! Now, what is 103 equal to?
Yes, _______? That’s 1,000, Ma’am.
How about 10−3 ? 0.001, Ma’am.

Very good! Now, let's see how we can use

these concepts to understand scientific
notation.
Explore (4 MINUTES) With your seatmate, brainstorm examples
of large or small numbers. It can be the
distance of the Earth from the Sun or
measurements or anything. Then, we will
discuss how scientific notation could Can we use our smartphones to search for
represent these numbers. the examples of large or small numbers,
Ma’am?
Yes, you may.
Now, who can give me an example of a
large number? 149,590,000 km, Ma’am, this is the distance
Yes, _______? of the Earth from the Sun. (Response may
vary)

Okay, and how about an example of a

small number?
Yes, _______? 0.00075 cm, Ma’am, this is the diameter of a
red blood cell. (Response may vary)

Okay! Those examples are correct, and did

you know that there is much easier and
shorter way to write big numbers like
149,590,000 and small numbers like
0.00075? This is by expressing the number
in scientific notation.

If we have 149,590,000, its scientific

notation will be 1.4959 x 108 . Try to
compute this in your calculator to check if
it’s equal to 149,590,000. It’s equal, Ma’am.
 Alright, now, if we have 0.00075, its
scientific notation will be 7.5 x 10−4 . Try to
check this in your calculator if it is equal to
0.00075. It’s still equal, Ma’am.

Okay, now have you observed something in

the scientific notation of these numbers? The numbers are multiplied by a power of
10, Ma’am.
Correct! Now that we've explored some
examples, let's now talk about scientific
notation.
Explain (5 MINUTES) To express a number in scientific notation,
you write it as a product of a number
between 1 to 10, and a power of 10. Did
you get it? Yes, Ma’am.

How about you ______? I don’t quite get it, Ma’am.

Okay, let me give you an example.

The scientific notation of 150,000,000 is

equal to 1.5 x 108
You get an exponent of 8 by moving the
decimal point eight times to the left from
150,000,000 to get the factor 1.5. Ma’am is it okay if we make the scientific
notation to 15 x 107 ? It’s still equal to
150,000,000.

No, we can’t do that. If someone can

remember what I said earlier on how to
express a number in scientific notation, can
anyone answer why we can’t have 15 as
the other factor for the product?
We can’t have 15 as the other factor of the
Yes, ________? product of a number and a power of 10,
Ma’am because the number should be
between 1 to 10 and 15 exceeds 10, Ma’am.

Excellent! So _______ is correct! We need

to have factors that are a number between
1 to 10 and a power of 10 to get its
scientific notation. That’s why the scientific
notation of 150,000,000 is equal to 1.5 x
108 . Did you now get it Rose? Yes, Ma’am!

Now, let’s have another example. The

scientific notation of 0.0000001 is 1 x
10−7 . Can anyone explain why this is the
scientific notation?
Yes. _______? You get an exponent of -7 of the power of
 10, Ma’am by moving the decimal point eight
times to the right from 0.00000001 to get 1.

Exactly! Now, did you now get how to write

Yes, Ma’am!
numbers in their scientific notation?

Do you have any clarifications? None so far, Ma’am.

Alright, very good, fast learners!

Elaborate (2 MINUTES) Now, can you give me the scientific
notation of 275,000,000? It’s still the same
It’s 2.75 x 108 , Ma’am.
as the first example I gave you.

Very good! Now, how about the scientific

notation of 0.0031? It’s 3.1 x 10−3 , Ma’am.

Alright! That’s correct! Since you already

know how to write numbers in their
scientific notation, do you have any idea on
how to convert a scientific notation to its
standard notation? Yes, Ma’am.

How so, _______? It’s still the same earlier, Ma’am that we’re
going to move its decimals Ma’am based on
the power of 10.

That is correct. If we have 9.2 x 103 what

is its standard notation? That will be 9,200, Ma’am.
If we have 2.1 x 10−5 ? It’s 0.000021, Ma’am.

Very good! Do you all now know how to

write numbers in scientific notation and
convert numbers from scientific notation to
standard notation? Yes, Ma’am!
Evaluate (5 MINUTES) In your quiz notebook, answer what’s
required.
Write the Scientific Notation of the
following:
1. 56,700,000
2. 0.00134
3. 0.0372
Write the Standard Notation of the
following:
4. 3.8 x 105
5. 6.438 x 10−4
After 4 minutes, I will call five of you
randomly to answer each item on the
 board. Okay, Rose? Yes, Ma’am!

Answers:
1. 5.67 x 107
2. 1.34 x 10−3
3. 3.72 x 10−2
4. 380,000
5. 0.0006438

Alright! All of you did well today, Rose.

That’s all for today, class dismissed.
Goodbye and thank you, ma’am Hines, God
bless you and more power!
