Scientific Notation Student Notes
These notes coincide with the Scientific Notation PowerPoint that is also available. They allow students to build an understanding of what positive and negative coefficients mean, how to decide which coefficient to use, and how to multiply and divide numbers in scientific notation through comparison and practice. This lesson has worked well in my classroom to teach and review the basics of scientific notation.

Heat Transfer by Convection
This Lab/activity teaches how heat energy is transferred by convection using hot and cold water and density differences. Using the food coloring allows the students to see the flow of hot water out of the flask due to lower density and how the cold water stays in place due to higher density. Very good results are usually obtained as long as the students don't jiggle the beakers. Quick lab can easily be completed in a 40 minute period.

SI (Metric) Review with Lab Activity
EDITABLE FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT or PRETEST for the International System of Units (SI) or Metric System. I use this with my students at the beginning of the year to assess their understanding of SI units from previous science classes. I usually modify it for the post-test.
Students should answer the questions and then the instructor should go through them and quantify student understanding of each section. Reteach sections that students are having troubles mastering.
