Abstrakt: Sixty-six million years, ninety-three million miles... What do these numbers really mean? Elementary science concepts that involve large numbers require students to have conceptual understanding of what one million represents and how it differs in orders of magnitude from smaller numbers such as ten thousand. These concepts also require students to have procedural fluency with estimation strategies. In this article, we presents strategies that integrate science, math, and trade books for simultaneously addressing NGSS and CCSSM standards and practices grounded in conceptual understanding of large numbers.
