Create a packet with 3 sections. Each section must take at least an hour to complete. The topic is on Exponents and Powers of 10. Please create a modified lesson for students who struggle with foundational math skills. Do not include modified verbiage. It is an independent assignment. No group work.

This learning resource focuses on the introductory concepts of exponents, helping students understand and evaluate basic exponents, identify patterns, especially with powers of 10, and apply exponent rules. Key topics covered include definitions of terminology like base, exponent, and power, visual representations of exponents like 5² indicating repeated multiplication, and worked examples showing calculations such as 2³ and 10⁴. It includes exercises for independent practice to reinforce the concepts, along with a self-check answer key. Furthermore, it explores the real-world significance of powers of 10 and provides cumulative practice involving mixed problems, error analysis, and application tasks that engage students with real-life scenarios involving exponents.
