Students identify and interpret the cyclical nature of the Parkfield, California earthquakes. They then investigate and graph earthquake occurrences on the Mojave segment of the San Andreas fault and then on the Hayward fault in order to...

In this problem solving worksheet, students read one problem about a boy who saves a specified amount of money each day. Students identify the pattern and answer the questions.

Seventh graders study to identify patterns in earthquake activity and impacts on human behavior. They also develop plans to cope with such natural disasters.

Students listen to the teacher read a book and participate with guided questions. They discuss patterns and how they repeat, by looking at quilts. They design their own quilt block to create a class quilt.

Being able to distinguish between the sounds for short vowel e and long vowel e is an important skill. Young readers are introduced to the /ee/ vowel pattern that makes the long vowel sound. They practice reading and identifying a...

Graphing functions in a real world application makes math come to life. Learners graph points on a coordinate plane and identify various points on a graph by working through a set of real world problems. This is a perfect review exercise.

Fifth graders review the concept of a line of symmetry by using pieces of paper that have pictures such as, letters of the alphabet, polygons, and designs made from polygons in order to determine if they have symmetry. The fine,...

Students investigate the relationship between odd and even numbers. In this odd and even relationship lesson, students draw pictures to help increase understanding.

In this sequencing worksheet, students identify the nth term in a sequence, determine the number of distinct rectangles found within vertical lines and identify distinct and non-distance parts of polygons made with overlapping lines. ...

Third graders develop a pattern using bean bags. They could kick the bean bag in the air with their left leg a certain number of times, etc. They work in pairs and trade off completely the patterns with one another.

Students explore the concept of geometric patterns. They use a review of patterns with numbers for a warm-up activity.Then the teacher does examples with the students attempting to find the pattern.

Students read a rhyme together. They are asked to identify the first missing word of the rhyme. Students are asked if they agree with the word. They then use their mouse and select and place the remining words. Students read the...

Fifth graders investigate patterns and determine what symbol or number comes next. Using a given website, they play the "Pattern Quest" game. Students follow instructions and identify a secret pattern. Upon completion of work on the...

Students discuss and create their own patterns. They practice and improve on making patterns of their own using red, white, and blue paper for a national theme. The symbols are based on what the teacher picks for the class.

Fourth graders observe patterns and determine a mathematical function that creates the pattern. Through a demonstration by the teacher, they observe strategies such as multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction to use when...

First graders use manipulatives to complete and extend patterns. In this patterns lesson, 1st graders complete a pattern with a missing element, extend a pattern, and sort objects by characteristics.

Students explore the pattern of the unit cell. For this science lesson, students color the unit cells on a worksheet and create a pattern using unit cells.

In this math patterns activity, students identify the shapes in each pattern and then select the shape that comes next in the pattern. Students find 3 patterns.

For this math patterns worksheet, students identify the shapes in the 3 problems. Students then select the shape that comes next in the pattern.

In this shape patterns instructional activity, 1st graders identify the shape within each set and select that shape that comes next in the pattern. Students complete 3 sets.

Students discuss the job of an archaeologist by determining how people have used their environment. Using a graph, they analyze the patterns and functions of Native Americans in Arizona using maize. They work together to answer...

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

Playing with matches (unlit, of course) becomes an engaging learning experience in this fun instructional unit. Teach pupils how to apply properties of exponential functions to solve problems. They differentiate between quadratic and...

Fibonacci is an interesting sequence that forms some unique patterns. Learners explore sequences that do not have the typical arithmetic and geometric patterns. They identify the pattern and find the next consecutive terms....
