Subject Matter: Exponents

Lesson Content Description:

Multiplication Properties of Exponents

Instructional Strategies/Method of Delivery:

Common Core Standard:

CCSS.Math.Content.8.EE.A.1
Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical
expressions. For example, 32 3-5 = 3-3 = 1/33 = 1/27.
ELD Standard: Collaborative: Expanding
1. Exchanging information/ideas
Contribute to class, group, and partner
discussions by following turn-taking rules,
asking relevant questions, affirming others, adding relevant information, and paraphrasing
key ideas.
Common Core Lesson Objective:
The students will be able to complete their ticket out the door by describing the rule and
using their notes and Exponent Rules Book to simplify the expression.

Assessment:
