Commutative Property Practice

Addition becomes much simpler once scholars understand its properties. They examine the commutative property through five equation pairs. For each, the addends have been switched and scholars must fill one in. The next six problems give...

Here are 10 simple addition problems intended to provide practice for those learning the commutative property of addition. Each question asks learners to fill in the missing addend that makes each equation true. An answer key is provided.

If you are looking for a visual warm-up on the commutative property, this might be the one. There is just one problem here, and you will need to guide learners through it since the objective isn't clear. They practice the commutative...

Set young mathematicians up for success with this interactive math notebook. Including a list of rules and expectations for using the notebooks, as well as templates for a creating a cover page and table of contents, this resource...

Using their knowledge of the associative and commutative properties of addition, class members work with fact families to create two addition and two subtraction problems with three given numbers. 

For a change, order does not matter. A short video provides a definition of the commutative property of addition. Pupils develop an understanding that—unlike some operations—order does not matter for addition problems.

Skills and drill practice may not thrill your class but as they say, practice makes perfect. They solve 16 single digit addition problems that require them to use the commutative property. Additional learning exercise are available...

Zoe from the StudyJams! crew brings the properties of addition to life by clearly explaining the meaning of the associative, commutative, and identity properties as she collects photos for an album. Listen to the included karaoke song...
