This worksheet introduces children to the commutative property, then uses a series of prompts to help them practice it.

The associative property means you can rearrange the numbers in a multiplication problem and still get the same answer. Students will practice applying this property in various forms and thinking critically about the important math concept.

The distributive property is a great tool to help with mental math and simplifying larger multiplication problems. Use this scaffolded resource with your students as an introduction to the distributive property.
