Teaching guide

What students learn

Establish and apply the index laws for positive integer exponents and the zero exponent, using exponent notation with numbers.

How to teach it

Derive each index law from expanded products (for example that multiplying powers adds the exponents), then apply the laws and the zero-exponent rule to numbers.

Watch out for

Multiplying the bases instead of adding exponents, and thinking a base to the power zero is zero rather than one.
