What educators are saying
An absolutely thrilling experience for our third-grade learners! A heartfelt thank you for such a fantastic and captivating activity!
My students absolutely love the mouse method to learn distributive property. It was much easier for them than breaking apart an array. This was a great resource that was incredibly engaging and so worth the money.

Description
The distributive property of multiplication state that multiplying two factors together gives the same result as breaking one factor into two addends, multiplying both addends with the remaining factor, then adding both products together.
Why not make this fun and make a connection with mouse ears. Learners "break" the addends by using the ears as a spot to put the two addends in this step by step method .

CCSS3.OA.B.5
Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide. Examples: If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication.) 3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication.) Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property.)
