You have to look at the array to see how it was split to know which addend to put in the mouse ears. Using the mouse ears is a fun way to show students how to split a factor into the addends. The next step is to multiply the factor by the new addends and then to add the product. See Free TPT Product here (copy & paste): https://rb.gy/jrycjy
