Introduction/Problem:
This lesson consists of two basic problems that students will explore. In Problem 1 students will have to work to determine the tenth term of a sequence. Problem 1 will extend students' understanding of sequences and patterns by having students find the tenth term of a sequence. In the previous lesson students only had to find the next few terms, while in this lesson students will need to find a way to find the tenth term. In problem 2, students will investigate bases and powers when multiplying numbers.

Procedures:
1) Students will get textbooks, calculators, and computers 2) Students will view a power point and follow along in their textbooks. Teacher will use the Inter-write tablet during the power point and students will have to opportunity to answer questions using the tablet. 3) When prompted students will turn on computers and go to the Wiki and open the excel document 4) Students will complete the spread sheets to check their work. 5) Class will finish the lesson 6) At the conclusion of the lesson students will write 3-5 sentences comparing and contrasting repeated addition and multiplication

Student Product/Work:
Students will turn in workbook pages at the end of the lesson, as well as a 1 pager they will complete with a partner for the share out.

Assessment/Rubric:
The workbook pages will be graded for completion and the 1 pager will be graded for correctness and presentation

Students will also write one paragraph summarizing the similarities and difference between the two different ways they can find the tenth term of a sequence (repeated addition versus multiplication)

Enrichment/Reteaching:
This lesson will reinforced through the Cognitive Tutor.
