Period One: Rational Exponents: The flower has the power, the roots are underground! :)
Period Two: Negative Exponents: Do the work first (multiplying with the same base = add the exponents OR dividing with the same base = subtract the exponents)
Stuck in the Middle... approximating/estimating irrational numbers using perfect squares as a benchmark.
PERIOD ONE: Quotient rule of exponents (When dividing exponents of the same base, you subtract the exponents) PERIOD TWO: Power to a Power rule of exponents (When taking a power to a power, you multiply the exponents)
Square root discovery activity: use square tiles to show perfect squares. Determine the square root of a perfect square with the measure of the side length.
