Create geometric cups by interpreting directions, informational text, and mathematical concepts. Critical thinkers apply geometric theory (congruent shapes, patterns, symmetry) to actual directions to create a cup that holds Kool Aid....

Hop to it! Beginning counters fill in water lily number sequences as a frog "hops" across them, skip counting by twos. There are five sequences in total, and some require counting backward. Learners can reference the two examples, which...

Young cartographers in groups hide treasure at school and then create a map to find it using pattern blocks and tiles. They make paintings with clues to create a visual representation of the location of their treasure. Groups present...

Skip count along the mushrooms to complete these number sentences which give young scholars an introductory look at addition and subtraction. Starting from five double-digit numbers, they subtract or add by threes, fours, and fives to...

What comes next? Young counters follow the stone path to each house, filling in numbers in a sequence as they go. Some of these move forward and some backward, but all progress by ones. Learners start with given numbers and then follow...

An interactive comprised of five questions challenges young scholars to complete a simple pattern. After examining a train with colored carts, learners arrange a green, blue, and yellow block into their corresponding space. Questions are...

Mental mathematicians add and subtract 1, 10, and 100 from sets of numbers. Each set of one, two and three-digit numbers gives scholars a chance to practice their addition and subtraction skills. There are 62 whole numbers in all. What...

Investigate the relationship between addition and subtraction as scholars fill in these number sentences, each of which is missing a symbol. Is it a subtraction or addition equation? There are 20 of these to start, all written...

These sequences are missing numbers and require some skip counting to complete. Scholars finish rows of numbers first counting by 1s, then 10s, and finally 100s. Each has three given numbers to get them started, and they fill in five...

Hop to it! Young counters practice skip counting by two using illustrations of animals hopping from place to place. Each image shows a number sequence and scholars draw in the path as they move from number to number. Encourage them to...

In this function tables worksheet, students analyze the number patterns in each of 2 tables. Students determine the patterns and fill in the blanks in the table.

In this patterns worksheet, students look at the each of the patterns in the 5 rows of shapes. In each row, students recognize patterns by filling in the last 2 shapes to complete the pattern in each of the 5 rows.

In these skip counting worksheets, students will complete the counting patterns by counting by 2's. For each number pattern, students must count by 2's a total of 8 consecutive times.

Students recognize patterns in arrays and repeat these patterns back to the teacher. They determine and tell the teacher the total number of squares in the array based on the pattern they recognize.

Learners play a game requiring them to select groups of odd or even numbers of objects with the aim of reaching a total which is an odd number. They carry out a more formal investigation of patterns in additions of odd and even numbers.

In this continuing the pattern worksheet, students observe patterns, write the numbers, draw the next picture, and identify sequence as a repeating pattern or a growing pattern. Students write four answers.

Students estimate, measure, compute, and create patterns using jelly beans. In small groups, they solve various calculations, place jelly beans into groups, invent a new flavor, create a pattern, and complete a worksheet.

In this finding a pattern using a table activity, students write what they know and need to find out, make a table to show a pattern, and solve the pattern sequence. Students write nine answers.

In this addition to 10 learning exercise, students will solve seven addition problems with three missing addends. The goal is to find at least seven ways to make ten with three addends and to look for a pattern.

Learners add and jump using a number line. In this jumping addition lesson students solve addition problems. Learners work with a partner to solve a series of addition problems.  

Students explore repeating and growing patterns. In this patterns lesson, students describe patterns, explore changing patterns and match patterns. Students participate in online activities and read books that show patterns in...

Second graders design and construct homes for the three pigs. Each of the homes is made and filled with patterns that we explore. They continue a sequential pattern and describe a rule for this.

In this patterns activity, learners find the missing number, shape, or letter needed for the patterns. Students complete 10 multiple choice questions.

Students explore two- and three-dimensional shapes.  In this very busy spider lesson, students read the story and then create a spider web pattern of their own. The webs must use a symmetrical pattern.  Additional activities...
