This lesson focuses on replacing numbers with letters in mathematical expressions and equations. It covers the additive identity property of zero, the multiplicative identity property of one, and the commutative property of addition and multiplication. The lesson includes examples and exercises to demonstrate these properties and encourages experimentation with substitution. Students are guided to understand the conditions under which these properties hold true and are prompted to reflect on their learning.

What is the main focus of the lesson in module four, lesson eight?

• Understanding the commutative property of subtraction

• Exploring the relationship between operations and expressions

• Learning about the distributive property

• Studying the properties of exponents

Which property allows you to change the order of numbers in addition without affecting the sum?
