Exponents / Powers

Today for maths, we all learnt about how to solve exponent (Powers) problems. Our challenge for today was to solve 18 problems based on our topic of exponents. This task had its ups and downs, although we all managed to find the answers and solutions. Next came creating a DLO that showed how to solve three different problems of the 18. To create this DLO I worked with Jack, and we had a lot of fun working, and creating together. In the end, we chose to make our DLO out of these problems. 73 (7 to the power of 3), 142 (14 to the power of 2), and 83 (8 to the power of 3).

BEDMAS

Today for maths I created a DLO on BEDMAS. Bed is an order of operation and it has six different operations. BEDMAS stands for Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction. I learnt that you always have to start with the Brackets when solving a equation and then after that you have to solve the Exponents. There is a extra equation for you to solve. When you get the answer comment how you solved it and I will tell you whether you got it right or wrong.
