Description

This is a set of activities for teaching the commutative property of multiplication. It includes both independent work and centers.

What you will get:

  • Posters/Anchor Charts
  • Commutative Property Puzzles
  • Commutative Property Matching Game
  • Worksheets
  • Answer Keys
  • Digital Activities

POSTERS

There are two different anchor chart posters. One includes the definition of the commutative property and the other shows students how it is used with supportive illustrations.

COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY PUZZLES

This is a set of 28 individual three-piece puzzles. Each one shows a multiplication expression written two ways (with the order of the factors switched) and the product.

Students must match all three pieces up in order to complete a puzzle. These can be used as an independent match center or in a small group.

MATCHING GAME

This activity includes 32 cards that make 16 pairs. Each pair of cards describes a multiplication situation (__ groups of __) in two different ways along with the product.

Students must match each card with its commutative property partner. Several pairs with the same product but different ways to arrive at it are included so students can’t simply find and match cards based on the product.

WORKSHEETS

These let students practice this concept in a variety of ways.

  • Worksheet 1 involves coloring in arrays on a grid to match multiplication expressions.

  • Worksheet 2 requires students to interpret multiplication expressions by drawing equal groups and a description ( __ groups of __ ).

  • Worksheet 3 is a cut-and-paste activity in which students must rewrite an expression using the commutative property and then glue the correct product in the space provided.

DIGITAL ACTIVITIES

The worksheets have been prepared for digital use through Easel. They feature answer boxes for students to type into. The cut & paste worksheet has moveable pieces and self-checking answers.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 × 7.
Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide. Examples: If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication.) 3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication.) Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property.)
