Summary

The commutative and associative properties are a whole lot more interesting when you apply them to a mathematical operation that you created!

  1. Students consider mathematical language for the inputs and outputs of two existing operations.
  2. Next, they try to determine the rules of my operation, the Byrdle.
  3. They create their own operation, including its name, symbol, terms for inputs and outputs, and the rule that it follows.
  4. Does their operation follow the commutative property?
  5. Finally, does their operation follow the associative property?
