The distributive property says that you can distribute multiplication over addition. You can say that a(b + c) = ab + ac. It also holds for distributing multiplication over subtraction. Along with commutative and associative properties, the distributive property is something that the kids will encounter throughout their journey of learning math.

Why Learn Distributive Property?

The distributive property is one of the fundamental properties. It can help kids simplify various problems in multiplication. For example, if you have to multiply 13 and 17, you can express 17 as 10 + 7 and use the distributive property.

The property also comes in very handy while learning algebra. While kids in third grade may not be introduced to algebra at this stage, it is vital to equip them with all the necessary skills to tackle the subject when they encounter it in higher grades.

Make Kids Practice Distributive Property While They Play

Are you wondering how you can go about teaching distributive property to kids? Educational Games are always the best choice when introducing a new concept. The interactive games use visuals to teach the concept. These visuals and the gaming aspect encourages kids to practice the problems more and more till they become adept at it.

Distributive Property Using Arrays

The first step is to use arrays to represent the distributive property visually. The game shows two arrays representing the right-hand side of the expression, i. e., ab + ac. The kids have to identify the equivalent expression, which is in the form a(b + c).

Break Up of Multiplication Sentences

This educational online game introduces kids to the expression of the distributive property. It asked kids to choose options that would complete the expression.

Apply the Distributive Property

The final online game is all about applying the property. It encourages them to perform the operations required to get the final answer. Online games like these help kids understand the importance of distributive property and motivate them to use it.

Are Your Kids Struggling to Learn Distributive Property?

Many kids find the distributive property confusing. At the start, it seems too difficult for them to understand. They also usually struggle with applying it successfully. Distributive property can make it immensely easier to perform complex multiplications. Helping kids practice the problems involving the distributive property more and more can help ease these struggles.

How as a Parent Can You Simplify?

To understand and use the distributive property, kids need to have a strong understanding of the place value of numbers. Knowing how to split any two-digit number and express it as the addition of its constituents in ten's and one's place can help in this aspect.

In addition to using interactive, curriculum-aligned online games on SplashLearn to improve their number sense and understanding of place value, you can also use models to teach kids the distributive property.
