Bridge (The Hook) - The history of logarithms, who invented it and why was it invented.
Teaching Objectives - To cover/review some of the laws of exponentials and logarithms before going over a more challenging problem together as a class. If there is additional time we have an extra problem that we can challenge the class with.
Learning Objectives - Have the students apply various log rules to solve a question, displaying their understanding.
Pretest - Go over the rules of exponentials and logarithms and then have the students answer a couple simple one or two step questions.
Participatory Activity - Work through together as a class a challenging logarithmic problem. Graph, without a calculator, y = log(x+2) - log(x-1) where the log is base 3.
Post Test - The participatory activity can be considered as the post test since there is only 15 minutes for the lecture. If there happens to be time we have an additional question to give.
Summary - Tell the class there will be an exam next week!
