Description
Do you need a fun way for students to practice the distributive property with minimal prep? The Distributive Property Scavenger Hunt Game gets students up and moving around while practicing math. In this game, students use the answer to one problem to find another problem hanging around the classroom. Students will complete a total of 16 problems to create a list of mathematicians. You can even extend this activity by having students research one of the mathematicians in the scavenger hunt. This product is self-checking and allows a teacher to work one-on-one with students while the rest of the class is engaged in the scavenger hunt. My students love seeing scavenger hunts on the agenda. This product comes with the student worksheet, scavenger hunt problems, instructions, and teacher’s key. You can find a free video showing how I introduce a scavenger hunt to my students. Feel free to use this video in your classroom or use it to prepare your lesson.
Problems require students to:
•Distribute integers
•Distribute variables
•Distribute and then combine like terms
This product is also included in the Middle School Scavenger Hunt Bundle.

Great resource! Well-organized, easy to use, and saved me valuable prep time. My students were engaged and able to follow along easily. I appreciate the quality and clear instructions—definitely something I’ll use again!
Great practice for the students and they were very engaged in the lesson!
It was a good review to use when we returned from break.
My students very first question was why there were no women mathematicians represented. We looked up our own and had a good discussion. Overall concept was engaging-my students appreciated being up and able to move around the room. Some of the cards had no photos attached.
My students enjoyed the activity.
This was a great review of this topic.
This was more challenging for my students that I initially thought, but made for a great check point. Students completed more than once and were able to compare their ease of solving and accuracy from the first to the second.
Students loved this!

CCSS6.EE.A.3
Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + 𝘹) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3𝘹; apply the distributive property to the expression 24𝘹 + 18𝘺 to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4𝘹 + 3𝘺); apply properties of operations to 𝘺 + 𝘺 + 𝘺 to produce the equivalent expression 3𝘺.
CCSS8.EE.C.7
Solve linear equations in one variable.
