How To Play:
Drag the squares in the gray area and drop them in the matching squares in the blue area below.
If you drop a square in the correct spot, it will disappear.
If you make a mistake, the square will return to its original spot.
Good luck!

Grouping Property
The Identity property says that you can multiply by 1 and you are always going to get the other number.
(3 x4) x 2 4 x (3 x 2) (4 x 2) x 3
You can break a larger fact into smaller facts, multiply then add .
Distributive Property
Identity Property
Examples: 7 x 0 = 0 4 x 1 = 4
You can use the distributive property to break the harder facts into two smaller easier facts, then solve.
5
0
Order Property/Turn Around Rule
The Zero Property says that the product of any number and zero is always zero.

7

The Commutative Property says that you can change the order of your factors and still get the same product.
5

Yes, he is correct. The commutative property says you can just turn the numbers around and get the same product.

10
Examples: (2 x 8) + (2 x 8) or (4 x 5) + (4 x 3)

Write two equations using the associative property and the factors 3, 4, 2
Write an explanation of what the distributive property is.
Write equations using the zero property and identity property
6 x 7 = (6 x 2) + (6 x a)
3 x 20 = (3 x 10) = (3 x a)

 7 x 2 = 2 x a
