Description
Operations with scientific notation notes for 8th grade math. Use this creative, colorful note-taking format, with practice, as an engaging way to introduce or review scientific notation operations.
What is a math doodle wheel? It's a structured but creative graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern, if desired
Students can keep these organizers in their notebooks all year as a reference sheet/study tool.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
The sections of this Scientific Notation Operations wheel include:
1) Scientific notation: this section defines scientific notation and what each factor represents.
2) Adding: this section includes the steps to add, plus two examples.
3) Subtracting: this section includes the steps to subtract, plus two examples.
- Across the bottom of the adding and subtracting sections is the note ‘exponents need to be the same.’
4) Multiplying: this section includes the steps to multiply, plus two examples.
- It also includes the exponent rule for multiplication.
5) Dividing: this section includes the steps to divide, plus two examples.
- It also includes the exponent rule for division.
- Across the bottom of the multiplying and dividing sections is the note ‘use exponent rules.’
This math wheel resource includes:
1) FOUR versions of student math wheel (FOUR versions)
- Open, Version 1: has space for students to write all notes – this gives you the most flexibility to tailor the wheel to your teaching.
- Open, Version 2: also has the space for all notes to be filled in, but it includes the notes around the center circle and the start of the exponent rules in the ‘multiply’ and ‘divide’ sections. This just makes those reminders a little more prominent than if students write them themselves.
- Fill-in-the-blank notes; this can help control the amount of space students use for writing, or can be used for students who tend to take more time to write notes.
- Pre-filled for absentees, new students, or students who need pre-filled notes. Answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on the wheel.
NOTE: I encourage students to use symbols in their notes when possible (as long as they know what the symbols mean), like # for number, = for equal, x for multiplying, + for adding, etc. This takes up less space in the notes, and sometimes symbols stick in the memory better than words.
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
1) Notes sections with examples (notes are suggestions, and you can alter them if you want)
2) Guided or independent practice: 14 questions in the pattern around the circle.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows; suggestions for coloring are included.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students aren't required to color during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative, practice making patterns, and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide.:-)

What teachers are saying about math wheels:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"These Math Doodle Wheel are interactive, engaging, and great to use with student notebooks! And I love the scaffolded versions - great to use for students with accommodations!"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"Taking notes used to be something challenging for my students. The resource engages ALL of my students as they all ask to color code everything. When I teach a new math skill, my students automatically ask if they can get a math doodle wheel to take notes in."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"My students absolutely love using the wheel as notes. It makes it easy for them to find the information when they need it and they can kind of doodle as a writing so they don’t get bored."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"I love these math wheels!! I love using guided notes and these are fun and easy to use. The kids really like them and actually use them and refer back to them. Totally worth the money and a time saver!"
