The Power Madness
exponents · writing and evaluating exponents
To write and evaluate exponents.
The Power Madness is a Grade 6 exponent card game played in a War-style format. Each player receives two cards and uses them to write an exponential expression, deciding which value should be the base and which should be the exponent. Players evaluate their powers and compare results to determine the winner of the round.
Use it for partner or small-group review when students are learning to write and evaluate exponents. The choice of base and exponent adds strategy because reversing the two cards can change the value dramatically.
