About This Lesson
A Tarsia activity on Exponents. These type of activities can be used to consolidate understanding of a given topic, and foster positive group work and co-operative learning. For more ideas on how to use these types of activities (including twists!) and to download the latest version of the wonderful free software to open this resource (and create your own), just click on the web-link. If you have any comments, or spot any (non deliberate!) mistakes, please share them below. Many thanks to all the teachers who have helped me assemble these Tarsias over the years.
This is a great tarsia on simplifying indices when multiplying and dividing. There are some negative indices but nothing too unusual, the questions only involve numbers and there is no algebra. This would be great at any stage of a lesson but probably would be better as a main since it is quite in depth and you would want to devote a good amount of time to it. Thank you for sharing.
