6.3+Logarithmic+Functions

Lesson:
[|6.3_LogarithmicFunctions.notebook] [|6.3_LogarithmicFunctions.pdf]

Things you need to know:

 * In order to conceptually understand logs, kids must discover that logarithms and exponents are inverses and that a log is actually an exponent itself. Let me know if you need me to clarify.
 * This is a huge topic for both Pre-Calculus and Calculus. To do it justice, I think that it needs to be more than one period. The lesson above is really big. I plan on getting through as much as possible on Monday, and then finishing on Tuesday.
 * Tuesday's lesson will be to finish this one (6.3) and to have the kids do a discovery worksheet that brings up the properties of logs. If you finish the worksheet on Tuesday early, you can begin lesson 6.4 which gives a lot of practice around the properties.
 * Wednesday will be 6.4.
 * I have not made a clicker test yet, because I am not sure that there will be time. Please let me know if you want me to make one.
 * In this lesson, many of the solutions and hints are behind boxes that FADE...just click the box and it will reveal the answer. Some answers are not included.
