Resource ID: TXLS010
Grade Range: 3
Subject: Math

Students break an array apart to represent the sum of two multiplication facts, showing the distributive property.

Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) Related to the Unit

As we looked at the vertical alignment document available to teachers through the Texas Education Agency and regional TEKS resource pages, it became evident why students struggle with this standard. The skills and knowledge within this standard are not addressed in the second-grade TEKS. Students are also required to use multiple skills to correctly calculate the answer using the distributive property. The chosen standard is identified as a third-grade readiness standard, which means that the intent is to help students develop a deep understanding of how to effectively use these skills in mathematics. This deep understanding is desired to help students at the fourth-grade level since the standard is identified as a supporting standard.
