I believe, along with many other mathematics educators, that mathematics should be discovered and therefore I gave the students the opportunity to discover rules. With indices part three, I gave two examples as to where the negative and fractional indices come from. (Did negative algebraically using the division law, worked out that root 25 multiplied by root 25 is 25, worked it with them and said well is there a different way we can write this blah blah.)
Please let me know how I could improve this or how your lesson goes! It would be amazing to hear how it works elsewhere and what you did differently to enhance your pupils learning. (Seriously any feedback would be amazing currently training on an ITT course!)

This is a useful collection of resources for work on indices, especially since it includes opportunities to assess students' understanding. It would perhaps benefit from explanation of how to deal with negative indices.
