In this video, Arobindo and Josh must partition the known growth factor of 3 over the period of one day in order to determine how tall the beanstalk is after growing for only a quarter of a day. Although Josh and Arobindo deftly utilize the exponential notation from their previous equation to predict that the height of the beanstalk will be 3<sup>\u00bc<\/sup>\u00a0at Day \u00bc\u00a0<strong>[0:33]<\/strong>, other students might struggle to make this connection. If this is the case, your students might need help seeing the entire growth factor of 3 being equally partitioned into four smaller growth factors, which, when multiplied together, yield 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Focus Questions <input type='hidden' bg_collapse_expand='69e222b99ca4f7063652472' value='69e222b99ca4f7063652472'><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-more-text-69e222b99ca4f7063652472' value=' '><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-less-text-69e222b99ca4f7063652472' value=' '><button id='bg-showmore-action-69e222b99ca4f7063652472' class='bg-showmore-plg-button bg-blue-button bg-arrow '   style=\" color:white;\"> <\/button><div id='bg-showmore-hidden-69e222b99ca4f7063652472' ><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For use in a classroom, pause the video and ask these questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><\/strong><strong>[Pause the video at 0:25]<\/strong>&nbsp;Predict how Josh and Arobindo will find the height of the beanstalk on Day \u00bc.

Why do you think he is raising his guesses to the power of 4? How does that relate to the fourth root? Arobindo explains that raising something to the power of 4 is the same as multiplying that number by itself four times; how does Arobindo\u2019s explanation relate to the fourth root of a number?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><\/strong><strong>[Pause the video at 6:37]<\/strong>&nbsp;What is happening with the time between each successive segment in the timeline drawn by Josh and Arobindo?
