Distributive Property

We had reviewed the Distributive property earlier in the year.

My students love distributing the b and making "ba+by" and distributing the c to make "ac+dc".

Another part of the distributive property is reviewing its use in mental math. Some of my students have fun using the strategy throughout the year to beat others that use a calculator.
