Description
This classic "Go Fish" Game focuses on using greatest common factor and the distributive property to rewite numerical expressions. This activity is designed as a classroom stations for groups of four. However, students could play in pairs or in larger groups. It works perfectly in stations as it is easily differentiated. As my students are rotating from one station to the next, I can grab the stack of cards and remove some pairs to modify the game for a lower level group. 24 cards are included.
For best results, print on card stock and laminate before cutting apart. Student directions are included. I recommend laminating them to keep at the station.
Common Core:
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.NS.B.4
Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1-100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2)..

My students used this in a small group while I was working with other students. I added some with a negative as well.
My students enjoyed this activity. It was an easy prep, easy grading lesson for me, as well.
My students loved the challenge of this activity.
This was very helpful for all types of students in 7th grade math!
This was very Helpful. It is exactly what I was looking for Thank You!
Activity used with MATH LAB/AIS students in small group setting. Made several laminated sets for partners to use. Materials put in activity basket for students to use again during skill review time, when finished early, or for a substitute day. Prefer games for Math Lab. This one is ready to print and use. Thank you!
A fun way to teach disributive property! My students worked well together!
Anytime you can incorporate learning into a game, it’s a win!!

Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
