Associative Property of Multiplication Packet

Have your students just started learning about properties of multiplication? Have they mastered the skill? Do you have students in your classroom who could use additional practice to sharpen their multiplication skills?

This is a Properties of Multiplication Packet for your 3rd grade students. It may be used in class or as homework. The objective of this resource is for students to correctly apply properties of multiplication to solve problems. The activities in this packet follow Common Core standards.   

In this packet you will find tutorials, practice pages, word problems, a review of both properties, and a test on both properties geared toward deeper understanding of both. The review and the quiz are almost identical – only the numbers and word problems have been changed. This packet should only be used after students have a good foundation of basic multiplication.

If you choose to implement this during class time, you can do so in a variety of ways from page to page:

Whole group – Complete a page with your entire class and you can project the page onto the whiteboard.

Small group – Have students work in small groups to complete a page. You can also pull a small group to your table and work alongside them. This allows you to informally assess their mastery.

Partner work – Students can work in groups of two to complete pages that you assign.

Math centers – Pages can be placed in small groups for students to complete.
