Summary
Let’s use factors to encode and decode words.
- First, students encode PIE, BREAD, and BEARD.
- Then they'll find other words that would encode to 720.
- Students explore the "Forbidden Letters" of 720, starting with G.
- Finally, they look for the longest 720 words possible. BARED, FABLE, AIDED, and DEBAR are other 5-letter words. BALBOA and BABIED are two 6-letter words.

Teachers love Byrdseed.TV!
"I am the coordinator for our district gifted program. Byrdseed.TV is one of my favorite sites and one of the best investments I have made for the program." ~ Jeannette in California
"I absolutely LOVE all of the ideas on your site. I am using Byrdseed TV to differentiate activities for my clustered students to work on when the rest of the class is doing something they've already mastered." ~ Wendy in Washington
"I just subscribed to Byrdseed.TV and am loving it -- though it is kind of scary addictive in a binge-watching kind of way (that, by the way, is a compliment)." ~ Elizabeth from Florida
