Cubing a Binomial (6 + 3)ยณ from the First Term
Here, children start with the big cube of 6ยณ and build outward:
๐ท Add three 6ร6 squares to each side
๐ท Identify the remaining spaces
๐ท Fill all gaps with squares of 3 (six times)
๐ท Watch the cube expand into (6 + 3)ยณ
This presentation shows the distributive law in three dimensionsโwithout ever naming it.
Montessori math makes algebra visible.
