Students can download pattern block grid paper or cutouts for class activities. Included is an activity comparing the relationships of fractional parts called, "What's My Number?" Links available to other pattern block and fraction...

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a design that has a line of symmetry. They use the calculator to determine the value of half the design. They predict and then find the value of the entire design.

Explore the literature connections, online activity, pencil and paper activity, and the manipulative investigation of patterns and geometric shapes on this page!

A colorful, engaging site where students can manipulate pattern blocks to create patterns or pictures. Included in the detailed directions are possible activities and a feature that allows you to email your patterns to a friend.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Use this flipchart in conjunction with lessons using pattern blocks in the elementary classroom. Add the images to your shortcut bar to have them readily available for lessons.

Many teachers find it more challenging to incorporate the use of manipulatives into their mathematics programs at the upper elementary or middle school grades. Activities using manipulatives are provided for grades four, five, and six...

In this site, pattern blocks are used to explore fractional relationships among shapes.

Students use pattern block stickers to determine and explore patterns.

Students are given pattern blocks and are told to create a tile design for a building to use on the floor. Printable lesson.

Use pattern blocks to explore the shapes that can fit into the given shape.

Use pattern blocks to explore different shapes within a shape.

Students investigate patterns in ordered pairs generated by constructing a sequence of similar shapes. They will then use the patterns and the calculator to predict the number of blocks it will take to build a specific shape in the...
