Guided Questions:
1. What can you observe about the population of the Philippines from 2000 to present?
2. What can you observe about the world population from 2000 to present?
3. The world's population is expected to increase by nearly 2 billion people in the next 30
years. What do you think will be the world’s population in the next 100 years? 200 years?
and so on? What is the negative effect?
C. Presenting How Big is Earth?
examples/instances of According to NASA, Earth's circumference (the distance all the way around the
the new lesson equator) is 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers). or 131479659 ft.
(ENGAGE)
Earth's mass is 6600000000000000000000 tons (597220000000000000000
kilograms). Its volume is about 260000000000 cubic miles (1000000000000 cubic
kilometers).
The total surface area of Earth is about 197000000 square miles (510000000

square km). About 71% of our planet is covered by water and 29% by land.
Guided Questions:
1. Do you think that the earth is big enough to fit all the people in the world for the next 500
years?
2. What can you observe about the numbers presented?
3. Is it easy for you to read and interpret the data with those very large numbers?
Who is that Brave Scientist?
Earth's circumference was first accurately measured more than 2,000 years ago by
the Greek astronomer Eratosthenes, who at the time lived in the Egyptian city of
Alexandria.
There are other scientists who have tried to measure objects other than the earth.
The nucleus of a human cell is about .000007.
D. Discussing new concepts A ribosome, another part of a cell, is about 0.000000003 of a meter in
and practicing new skills diameter.
#1 (EXPLORE)
Scientists Was Too Lazy to Write Very Large and Very Small Numbers
They decided that by using powers of 10, they can create short versions of long
numbers.
Scientific Notation
Changing Scientific Notation to Standard Notation
If an exponent is positive, the number gets larger, so move the decimal to the right.
If an exponent is negative, the number gets smaller, so move the decimal to the
left.
1. A lab technician counts red blood cells in a smear of a patient’s blood on a microscope
slide. From this number, she will estimate the number of red blood cells in a microliter of the
patient’s blood. The normal number is about 5,000,000 red blood cells per microliter. What is
this number in scientific notation?
G. Finding practical
applications of concepts
and skills in daily living
2. A single red blood cell is about 0.000007 meters in diameter. How would you write this
(ELABORATE) number in scientific notation?
3. Viruses are another common cause of human illness. They are even smaller than pollen
grains. A typical virus is only about 0.00000002 meters in diameter. Express this number in
scientific notation.
J. Additional activities for 1. As its peak, more than 400,000 people worked on Apollo exploration programs. The effort
application or was the largest enterprise ever undertaken. How many people worked on Apollo at its peak?
remediation Express this number as a standard notation.
(EXTEND)
2. When Apollo began, neither the United States nor the Soviet Union possessed a rocket
powerful enough to send humans to the Moon and back. The United States developed the
super-booster Moon Rocket. The thrust at lift off is reported to be 1.6 x 106 pounds. Express
this number as a standard notation.

DIRECTIONS: Many numbers in real life are very large or very small. Indicated below are several examples of instances
where extremely large or small numbers occur. Write the missing equivalent forms using your knowledge of standard
notation and scientific notation.
