THE DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY: POSTER, NOTES, AND 2 ACTIVITIES BUNDLE

***********************************************************************************************

1. The Distributive Property - Anchor Chart Poster

This anchor chart poster is a visual representation of the distributive property. It provides conceptual understanding of multiplying the sum or difference by a number is the same as multiplying each number in the sum or difference by the number outside the parentheses. Students will be able to use an area model to make sense of the distributive property.

This poster makes for great classroom poster, anchor chart, reference sheet classroom scaffold/tool.

***********************************************************************************************

2. The Distributive Property: Distribute IN & Factor Out Guided Notes

This foldable is guided notes for the applying the distributive property for algebraic expressions. Students will clearly see how to distribute IN to the parentheses to create an equivalent expression and factor out the greatest common factor to create an equivalent expression.

These interactive notes include an example distributing in and factoring out. Students will see that to distribute in we must multiply and to factor out we must divide.

These guided notes will make an excellent addition to your students' interactive math notebook and/or binder! FOUR inside versions are included! This is aligned with the 6th and 7th grade common core standards.

***********************************************************************************************

3. Equivalent Expressions using the Distributive Property - Dominoes Math Activity

This fun and engaging activity is a great way to check for understanding of the Distributive Property. Students will create equivalent expressions using the Distributive Property to find the next puzzle piece. Each puzzle piece connects like Dominoes. Students will Distribute into the parentheses to create 15 equivalent expressions. This activity is aligned with the 6th grade Common Core Standards.

This activity works great in small groups, stations, math centers, or self-assessing. Students will be asking for more activities like this!

***********************************************************************************************

4. Equivalent Expressions Distributive Property - Color and Solve Math Activity

This color and solve activity is a fun and engaging way for students to practice distributing in to parentheses to create equivalent expressions and factoring out the greatest common factor. Students must distribute in to create an equivalent expression and factor out using the greatest common factor (GCF) to create the equivalent expression. This solve and color activity is perfect for Valentines Day, or any time throughout the school year! This activity is aligned with the sixth (6th) grade common core standards.

Questions & Answers

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms.
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.
Solve word problems leading to equations of the form 𝘱𝘹 + 𝘲 = 𝘳 and 𝘱(𝘹 + 𝘲) = 𝘳, where 𝘱, 𝘲, and 𝘳 are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach. For example, the perimeter of a rectangle is 54 cm. Its length is 6 cm. What is its width?
