Curated OER
Seeing Dots
Your algebra learners interpret algebraic expressions, in order to compare their structures, using a geometric context. They also discern how the two expressions are equivalent and represent a pattern geometrically and algebraically.

Counting Circles
Learners look at bands of colors and estimate how many rings of color there are. While working in groups, they come up with a plan of how to accurately count the rings. They attempt to find a pattern in the colors, and decide whether...
Curated OER
Mosaic Tiles
I would consider this an outline and not a complete lesson. It would take a little work on your part because you would need to look on the internet for examples of Ojibwe art to show your pupils. They could explore the patterns that the...
Curated OER
Eating Patterns
Students sort through pictures of food to create patterns as they pertain to geometry. In this geometric patterns lesson, students relate to food as concrete objects that represent geometric patterns. Students recognize and describe the...
Curated OER
Footprints
Students explore patterns. In this patterns geometry lesson, students identify and extend patterns including body parts, movement, geometric shapes, noises, and footprints. Students create and share an original pattern.
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this pattern completion learning exercise, students observe groups of six patterns and add the final two patterns. Students complete five sets of patterns.
Curated OER
Examining Geometric Solids
Students explore geometry by completing a math worksheet in class. In this shape identification lesson, students identify the characteristics associated with 15 solid geometric shapes. Students identify patterns between vertices, edges...
Curated OER
Patterns
In this Algebra I worksheet, 9th graders explore number and geometric patterns and use the Sieve of Eratosthenes to find the prime numbers less than one hundred. The six page worksheet contains eight multipart questions. Answers are...

Analyzing Numeric and Geometric Patterns of Paper Pool
Students use concrete and pictorial representation of geometric patterns to extend patterns. In this geometric patterns lesson plan, students identify patterns and extend them.
Curated OER
Visual and Number Patterns
Fourth graders develop strategies for identifying geometric and number patterns. In this mathematical patterns lesson, 4th graders use pattern blocks to make repeating patterns with numbers and shapes. Students then explore number...
Curated OER
Create and Analyze Rectangular Patterns
Students explore the concept of geometric patterns. For this geometric pattern lesson, students use Microsoft Excel to explore geometric patterns. Students analyze growth rates of pattern growth. Students create their own patterns...
Curated OER
Exploring Lines of Symmetry
Students investigate the concept of symmetry. They use cut out shapes that are folded in order to practice identifying the lines of symmetry. The lesson is observed by the teacher working with students for the purpose of scaffolding and...
Curated OER
Geometry Patterns
Fifth graders, using graphic and word processing software, create geometric patterns by performing elementary transformations.
Curated OER
Geometric Patterns
In this geometric patterns worksheet, students learn to solve problems that use geometric patterns and solid figures. Students solve six word problems.
