The commutative property of multiplication applies not only to whole numbers but to fractions as well. Connor and Makayla explore and discuss the idea that 2/3 x 3 is the same as 3 x 2/3. Your 5th grade class will connect with learning through the visual models in the commentary section that provide possible solutions. The activity is ready to implement and would work well in a class with cooperative groups. To extend the learning, teachers could generate similar questions to have students generate their own visual model.
