Understanding the multiplication rules is
a process of counting the number of
factors with the same base. This leads to
the addition rule. Writing out fully each
problem at first usually leads to complete
understanding quickly.
Problems usually occur working with
numbers not variables.
Setting up a table of powers form +3 to –
3 of ten and showing how moving down
is division by 10, is a way to demonstrate
0 and negative exponents.

Zero and negative exponents are different
ways of writing numbers that result from
using the division rule.

Use of a calculator with built in scientific
notation is useful in teaching this topic.
Estimation skills need to be stressed.
