Scientific Notation

Quick thank you to 4th for noticing the misspelling on the board. I appreciate you reading it so well and helping me out like that.

Objective

Start thinking about Scientific Notation

Agenda

Brainbox
POW
How Many Stars Activity (If you liked this, check out the end. There's another problem that we didn't get to.)

Other links we used today 

What are the numbers after trillions?.

Answers to questions that came up but didn't help get our answer so we skipped them


Very simple life cycle of stars site 

How long will our sun last?

What will happen to the sun?

How long until the end of time? 

How many people have ever lived? (Hope this helps you, J;G; and L in 1st. You guys still have the most creative/least expected method for solving the problem. Keep me posted on your conclusions.)


And because it can't be avoided
Snow Day Calculator

As of 12:50ish we had a 25% chance Thursday and a 19% chance Friday with a note that this was likely an early dismissal. Both are in the slim to none range so DO YOUR HOMEWORK and GO TO BED ON TIME just in case. A snow day is better when you are rested and don't have homework anway.
