What students practice
The first pages move between repeated factors and powers, find the value of powers with whole-number, fraction, and decimal bases, and use the order of operations with powers first. Students then name the terms, coefficients, and constants of an expression, write expressions from phrases and situations, read expressions back in words, and evaluate expressions and everyday formulas for given values.

Who it's for
Grade 6 classes starting expressions, and homeschool families who want exponents and expressions together before equations. Bases are positive, exponents run from 1 to 5, and phrases are read for meaning rather than matched to key words.
