Our district has given us the green light to abandon our state’s previous standards and focus completely on Common Core. So, I have been spending the past few weeks gathering and creating materials to meet the new Common Core standards in Math.
Today I created a visual for Exponents and Powers of Ten. Please visit my Teachers Notebook Shop if you would like a copy of your own 🙂
First I created a complete table with the Powers of 10 from one to one million. Then I took that same table and pulled some of the information off. Basically this gives me two options: I can either distribute the completed table (quicker option) or the incomplete table and have the kids complete the missing parts.
In addition, I have several options on how to assemble the forms. I can have the student leave it as is and ask them to store the paper in their math folder for future reference. Or I can have them cut the paper in one of two ways to either glue in their math journals or store in their math journal tool pocket.
Create Foldable:
Or cut and assemble into a ‘number line’ format:
