The Switch! | Multiply by Music | Jack Hartmann

The Switch by Jack Hartmann teaches about the commutative property of multiplication. Two numbers can be multiplied in either order to get the same answer. We call this The Switch. You can sing along with the numbers as they switch, and then show how much you know about The Switch for this great multiplication tip.

Lyrics

The switch, the switch when you multiply

And you'll get the same answer every time

The switch, the switch when you multiply

And you'll get the same answer every time

You just go like this, and you can do the switch

The switch

2 x 5 is 10

switch

5 x 2 is 10

4 x 10 is 40

Switch

10 x 4 is 40

1 x 9 is 9

Switch

9 x 1 is 9

7 x 0 is 0

Switch

0 x 7 is 0

The switch, the switch when you multiply

And you'll get the same answer every time

You just go like this and you can do the switch

9 x 12 is 108

Switch

12 x 9 is 108

3 x 4 is 12

Switch

4 x 3 is 12

8 x 9 is 72

Switch

9 x 8 is 72

4 x 6 is 24

And you'll get the same answer every time

The switch, the switch when you multiply

And you'll get the same answer every time

The Switch, the Switch can help you multiply

The Switch, the Switch can help you multiply
