Learn to visualize mathematical patterns as a folded pattern. Beginning with a visual display, the task encourages pupils to view sequences as a folded table. The pattern of the table then becomes a formula in a spreadsheet that...

Students develop algebraic equations to solve problems involving farm animals. They watch a video, use manipulatives to determine the number of birds and pigs on the farm, and create original problems for their classmates to solve.

In this problem solving patterns worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 2 various types of problems. First, they identify what the 4n represents in each block pattern illustrated. Then, students determine the number of arrows added to...

Students explore the concept of patterns. In this patterns instructional activity, students use applets to manipulate tessellations. Students predict the next number in a sequence by recognizing patterns.

Eighth graders extend their learning of graphing linear equations and are introduced to connecting patterns in tables and graphs to represent algebraic representations. They then determine patterns and extrapolate information from these...

Learners discover and predict patterns in a numerical sequence. Through the Internet and video segments, students begin with basic number patterns and extend their knowledge into higher math skills. They will also create new patterns...

Ninth graders examine mathematical patterns. In this algebra lesson, 9th graders collaborate to think outside the box and share solutions to problems they have encountered. Students use popsicle sticks to solve various building problems...

Students analyze relating a model to an algebraic equation and visa versa. Patterns are reviewed in detail and then in pairs new models are created and then translated into a word problem or equation. They illustrate their models on...

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

In this algebra and patterns practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Students recognize patterns in a numerical sequence, create new patterns and predict outcomes to established sequences.

Middle schoolers explore how a pattern built with square tiles grows and describe the change from stage to stage. They predict later stages of a tile design sequence and create math equations related to the growth of tile designs.

Students explore growth patterns by using manipulatives such as pattern blocks, investigate growth pattern of pattern, record growth in T-chart, describe how pattern is growing, and predict number of blocks needed to extend pattern.

Learners study patterns. They construct growing patterns using pattern blocks and isosceles right triangles. They verbally describe the patterns and state the rule that describes the relationship involving the number of pattern blocks...

Pupils create patterns. In this math lesson, students complete and create patterns using pattern blocks or disks. Pupils analyze the patterns they see.

Students practice their patterning skills using national symbols.

Students copy, create, describe, and extend patterns with objects. They explore a variety of patterns through the use of manipulatives, sound, rhythms, songs and movement. Cooperative processes are used to encourage partner discussion.

Students investigate growing patterns. In this additive patterns lesson, students analyze the core of growing patterns. Students extend additive patterns based on the core.

Students discover patterns and sequences. They use a website to explore patterns and fractals. Students share their discovery of fractals and their patterns with the class. They develop a list of patterns used in everyday life.

Ninth graders examine sequential number patterns and the Fibonacci sequence. Given number patterns, they determine the next number in a sequence. Students develop their own number patterns and exchange them with another to be solved.

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson includes a reading of And the...

Students identify, extend and create patterns using various types of manipulatives and then work a pattern game in the computer lab to reinforce what was learned.

Students use concrete and pictorial representation of geometric patterns to extend patterns. In this geometric patterns lesson plan, students identify patterns and extend them.

Students examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.
