Distributive Property of Multiplication Center

Use this math center to give students some hands-on practice with the Distributive Property of Multiplication. The center comes with 20 mats in 5 sets (4 each of x5, x6, x7, x8, x9) that the students use to practice the distributive property.

How does it work?
First, the student must look at the large array and see where the Ninja is splitting it. Then the student uses the multiplication sentence cards to describe each of the 2 smaller arrays. Next, the student finds the distributive property sentence that adds the 2 arrays.

All work is recorded on a recording sheet. Answer keys are also provided. Once the student has completed all 5 sets, there is a Writing Reflection sheet to fill out to assess understanding of the Distributive Property of Multiplication.

The mats are colorful and each set has a different animal Ninja character for easy grouping. Black and white versions of the mats are provided for printing as well. Center labels are provided to clearly label each set.

Here’s what’s included:
• 20 color mats
• multiplication sentences and distributive property sentences
• center instructions for students
• answer keys
• recording sheet
• writing reflection sheet
• center labels
• Distributive Property of Multiplication Poster
• b/w versions of the 20 the mats
