Expanding and Condensing Logs Practice


One of my standard “tools” to get students to practice a kind of boring skill is to get out the mini-whiteboards and let them write with markers.  For some reason, students think whiteboards are super exciting.

Every year, I have my students practice expanding and condensing logarithmic expressions LOTS before we actually start solving equations.  I find that lots of practice makes the equations a little less painful.  I’ve used this powerpoint as practice every year.  It includes both expanding and condensing expressions.  If whiteboards aren’t enough to motivate your kids, sometimes setting a timer with an arbitrary amount of time helps too :)
