Sixth graders discover the patterns of sums of polygon angles. In this math lesson, 6th graders study the properties of geometric shapes to solve problems as they participate in hands-on activities.

In this shape patterns learning exercise, students identify the shapes within each set and select the shape that comes next in the 5 patterns.

For this shape patterns instructional activity, students identify the shapes within each set and draw the missing shapes to complete the 11 patterns.

In this shape patterns learning exercise, students identify the shapes in the 12 examples. Students then draw in the missing shape to continue the pattern.

For this shape patterns worksheet, students identify the shapes in the 13 problems and draw the shape that continues the patterns.

Students investigate Greek spelling patterns. In this Greek words activity, students complete an oral spelling activity with their teacher and then a worksheet to learn about Greek spelling patterns.

Students investigate patterns and functions. In this algebra instructional activity, students examine the repetition of integers and objects. They create formulas for the repetition and identify them as function using equations.

Young scholars explore patterns.  In this patterns geometry lesson, students identify and extend patterns including body parts, movement, geometric shapes, noises, and footprints.  Young scholars create and share an original...

Students identify a number pattern and extend the number sequence. They make generalizations given a specific pattern and create, describe, and extend patterns. They create a table that describes a function rule for a single operation...

Students create a pattern. In this patterns lesson, students review the meaning of symmetry and explore using pattern blocks. Students look for patterns in real quilts, photographs and pictures. Students work independently to plan a...

Students draw a model of the bunny problem which generates the Fibonacci Sequence, spirals generated from golden rectangles and golden triangles; identify the golden ratio in the human body, and find the Fibonacci numbers in nature.

Second graders find the lines of symmetry in pattern blocks and alphabet letters. In this symmetry lesson, 2nd graders discuss what symmetry is, view examples of lines of symmetry and apply what they have learned by finding the line of...

Third graders solve In and Out function problems. They analyze a chart and discuss the steps to solving the functions, and discuss the patterns and complete the charts. Students then create a book of repeating patterns using magazines,...

Learners explore patterns. They observe a video, "Math Monsters." Students determine the next item in a sequence. Learners read books about patterns. They discuss patterns in quilts. Students visit a specified web site and design...

Students explore rhyming words, beginning and ending sounds. In this word family lesson, students identify beginning and ending sounds. Students draw pictures of words and use phonetic spellings to write stories. Students use Dr. Seuss...

First graders research strategies for identifying numbers through 100. In this number recognition instructional activity, 1st graders make games, create puzzles,and fill in missing numbers to practice number identification.

In this patterns and sequencing learning exercise, 9th graders complete 30 math problems that involve patterns and rules. Students must read information as they work through the math problems.

Fifth graders, after discussing the teacher's handout examples, practice writing five story problems about mammals using relevant/irrelevant information. As a class, they solve the story problems while identifying the key concepts that...

Young scholars explore two-dimensional and solid shapes. In this shapes and patterns geometry lesson, students work with a partner to create identifiable objects using tangrams. Young scholars describe the attributes of their shape and...

Fifth graders explore quilting in pioneer families. In this quilting lesson, 5th graders review the history of quilts, the role of women, and quilting patterns. They create their own pattern and quilt square.  

Learners formulate a definition of tessellations by comparing and contrasting different patterns and shapes of real objects. They discuss the relatioship between shapes and patterns as well as their function in the real world. Students...

Second graders explore a bag of mixed pattern blocks. As a class they discuss different attributes of these shapes. In this math instructional activity, 2nd graders search to find shapes that are similar by placing shapes on top of one...

Students explore number sense by solving consumer math problems. In this pattern identification lesson plan, students analyze a list of numerical and geometric patterns while predicting the future outcome. Students utilize inference...

Third graders use pattern blocks of one shape at a time to try to create a similar shape. They compare the perimeter of the new figure with the perimeter of the original shape and look for a pattern. Students use the pattern to predict...
