Description
3 exponent multiplication puzzles to help students strengthen their understanding of exponent rules and build number sense. The puzzles are easily differentiated to meet the needs of your students. Ideas for differentiating are included in the PDF.
Puzzle #1 has 4 blank spaces and comes with 6 sorting slips. Students figure out which terms will multiply to the rows and columns. You can choose to give students all 6 sorting slips to make the puzzle more challenging, or only the 4 slips that correctly complete the puzzle.
Puzzle #2 has 6 blank spaces and comes with 6 sorting slips. To decrease the challenge of this puzzle, you can choose to sort one of the sorting slips onto the puzzle before giving it to students.
Puzzle #3 has 8 blank spaces with 8 sorting numbers. It is a 3x3 grid with the middle term filled in. This will be the most challenging puzzle.
Includes both print and digital versions of the 3 puzzles. The digital versions are drag-and-drop in GOOGLE Slides. If you choose to differentiate the puzzles, you can make an extra copy of the Slides file and delete the "distractor" terms from puzzle #1 and/or sort one (or more) of the slips onto puzzle #2 before sharing with students. An answer key is included.
