Discover an inverse variation pattern. A simple lesson plan design allows learners to explore a nonlinear pattern. Scholars analyze a distance, speed, and time relationship through tables and graphs. Eventually, they write an equation to...

How do we determine how much information to include and what can be left out? By playing a game of 20 questions, the class generates the best strategies for finding a number. They then move on to guessing the next letter in a short...

High Schoolers use the TI-83 calculator to produce a sequence, explore patterns and find a linear or quadratic equation for a given pattern. They use inductive reasoning to make conjectures about patterns. They find the Y-value of a...

In this algebra worksheet, learners solve a pattern or sequence using geometric and arithmetic formulas. There are 21 questions on 5 different sections.

In this 2-day lesson focused on exponents, middle schoolers will cross the curriculum by engaging in science, history and language arts activities. Exponential growth will be explored using grains of rice on a chess board. Exponential...

Pupils determine the pattern in collinear points in order to determine the next point in a sequence. Using the definition of slope, they practice using the slope formula, and finish the activity with three different ways to...

Exponential functions are the name of the game. Young mathematicians can work through each of the eight worksheets by evaluating functions, applying logarithms, completing logarithmic functions, and building inverse functions. This...

Working with transformations allows the class to take a turn for the better. The short assessment has class members perform transformations on the coordinate plane. The translations, reflections, and rotations create pattern designs on...

Just how far off is the least squares line? Using a graphing calculator, individuals or pairs create residual plots in order to determine how well a best fit line models data. Three examples walk through the calculator procedure of...

Students apply fractions to counting rhythm in music. In this algebra lesson, students interrelate the concept of math into music as they fill out a chart identifying the names and symbols of music notes and their equivalent values in...

Students analyze patterns and try to figure out the next term in the sequence. In this algebra lesson, students discuss the functions rule and how it works to solve sequences. They practice solving problems and find the nth term or what...

Students identify numbers in nature. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems using Fibonacci sequence as it is expressed in nature. They research the Fibonacci's pattern as it relates to numbers.

Students write equations based on a pattern. In this algebra lesson, students calculate the arithmetic and geometric mean of a sequence. They rewrite word problems as a linear equation and solve real life scenario based on the given data.

In this algebra activity, 9th graders calculate the amount of money someone will earn in 30 days, breaking it down to daily. So the first day someone earns 1cent, the second 2 cents et..all the way up to 30 days.

In this algebra worksheet, students calculate how many snaps is done over a certain amount of time. They chart and graph their data. There is an answer key.

In this algebra worksheet, students develop patterns and formulas to solve sequences. They apply the Number Theory to each problem. There is 1 question.

Students graph and evaluate equations. In this algebra lesson, students are given pairs of coordinates and asked to write an equation representing the values. They are also given values to plug in to their equations and evaluate.

Young mathematicians extend their knowledge of rational numbers on a number line to graph inequalities by first using number cards to compare rational numbers. They finish by using similar reasoning to graph inequalities on a number line.

This lesson focuses on Pascal's Triangle, a number pyramid in which every cell is the sum of the two cells directly above. It contains all binomial coefficients, as well as many other number sequences and patterns.

Gain an understanding of geometric sequences and series by viewing examples and a video lesson. [1:46]

This interactive Learn Alberta math resource offers a hands-on exploration of number patterns. Students get to control an animated squirrel in order to figure out terms in a sequence and see each pattern represented both in picture form,...

Students work through an online turorial on the topic of number patterns and then take a ten question quiz that increases in difficulty as the problems progress.

In addition to arithmetic and geometric sequences, Fibonacci Numbers, and figurate numbers, there are countless interesting sequences that don't follow a similar, regular pattern. These include prime numbers, perfect numbers, the...
