 * # **classify** numbers as natural, whole, integer, rational, irrational
 * 1) **use** the order of operations and understand how the calculator uses the order of operations
 * 2) **perform**, with confidence, operations on whole numbers, integers, fractions and decimals.
 * 3) **convert** easily between fraction, decimal and percent representations
 * 4) **change** recurring decimals to fractions
 * 5) **use** directed numbers and understand their usefulness in particular situations
 * 6) **convert** numbers into different base systems and perform simple addition and multiplication in different base systems.
 * 7) **express** large and small numbers in standard form (scientific notation)
 * 8) **manipulate** and **apply** the laws of indices for positive, negative and zero exponents.
 * 9) **perform** calculations with numbers written in standard form. || # **locate** irrational numbers on the number line
 * 10) **prove** that sqrt 2 is irrational
 * 11) **convert** easily between radical and exponent forms
 * 12) **compute** more complex sums and products using different bases.
 * 13) **manipulate** and apply the lasws of indices using rational exponents.
 * 14) **understand** that a rational exponent is another way of representing a radical. ||
