The document provides instructions for a lesson on the properties of operations. Students will review properties like the commutative, associative, identity, zero and distributive properties. They will then create a puzzle depicting one of the properties and trade puzzles with a classmate to solve. Finally, students will make a comic incorporating algebra vocabulary terms. The lesson emphasizes conceptual understanding of important algebra concepts through interactive activities.

3. Remember it by… addition multiplication
Commutative property
switch A+b=b+a a*b=b*a
Associative property
group A + (b + c) = (a + b) + c A ( b * c) = (a * b) * c
Identity property
Same number 5+0=5 5*1=5
Distributive property
A(b*c) = ab * ac
Times everything in group A(b + c) = ab + ac
A(b*c) = a(d)- wow!
Zero property
Must equal zero -a + a = 0 A* 0=0
