Growing Patterns and Sequences
Learners explore, discover, compare, and contrast arithmetic and geometric sequences in this collaborative, hands-on activity. They build and analyze growing patterns to distinguish which kind of sequence is represented by a set of data...

Pattern Power
Young elementary learners will discover there are patterns all around them in their daily lives. In groups, they sort pattern blocks by size and color. Using the internet, they create their own type of patterns and share them with the...

Growing, Growing, Gone
Budding mathematicians identify growing patterns in numbers and songs then create their own patterns. They look at number patterns and language patterns and then create their own using money and footprints.

Patterns and Fingerprints
Human fingerprint patterns are the result of layers of skin growing at different paces, thus causing the layers to pull on each other forming ridges. Here, groups of learners see how patterns and fingerprints assist scientists in a...

Making Patterns - Create, Analyze, and Predict
Fourth graders practice making patterns using Unifix cubes and identify, analyze, and determine rules for describing numerical patterns involving operations and nonnumerical growing patterns. They also find an example of a pattern in...

Heritage: Line Dance is a Pattern!
Line dancing is the repeating of a pattern of steps, done to music. Teach youngsters how to line dance and they won't feel so awkward when they grow up. Let them experiment with creating their own patterns and teaching their classmates....
Curated OER
Patterns That Grow
Students investigate growing patterns. In this additive patterns lesson, students analyze the core of growing patterns. Students extend additive patterns based on the core.
Curated OER
Patterns
Fourth graders investigate patterns and sequences. In this patterns and sequences instructional activity, 4th graders use a hundreds chart to build recurring patterns. Students skip count by threes and fives on a hundreds...
Curated OER
Extending Geometric and Numeric Patterns
Students 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...
Curated OER
Investigation - Patterns
Students create a pattern out of pattern blocks. In this math lesson, students work with a partner to investigate the pattern they have. Within that group, students continue to design the pattern by adding the next two pieces....
Curated OER
Visual and Number Patterns
Fourth graders develop strategies for identifying geometric and number patterns. In this mathematical patterns lesson, 4th graders use pattern blocks to make repeating patterns with numbers and shapes. Students then explore number...

Beyond the AB Pattern in Dance
Students demonstrate various patterns using dance. In this expressive arts lesson, students are led in a warm-up to demonstrate the AAB pattern, which includes spinning and jumping. Students are broken up into groups and perform several...
Curated OER
It Just Keeps Going and Going...
Students explore patterns, identify patterns, and complete a variety of patterns. They view and discuss an online video and identify the different patterns from the film, then using a hundreds grid create an original pattern using their...

How a Flower Grows
English Language Learners demonstrate their ability to sequence the steps in a process. After reading six sentences that describe how a flower grows, learners identify the right sequence and illustrate the steps. An answer key is provided.
Curated OER
Representing and Extending Patterns
Students explore repeating and growing patterns. For this patterns lesson, students describe patterns, explore changing patterns and match patterns. Students participate in online activities and read books that show patterns in...
Curated OER
Matchstick Patterns
Third graders investigate patterns made using matchsticks and tiles, so it involves them in active studying. The relation between the number of the term of a pattern and the number of matchsticks (tiles) that that tem has is explored...
Population Connection
Where Do We Grow from Here?
Did you know that the population is expected to grow to 11 billion by 2100? The resource serves final installment in a six-part series on the global population and its effects. Scholars interpret data from the United Nations about the...
Curated OER
Repeating Patterns
Young scholars 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.
Curated OER
National Symbol Patterns
Students practice their patterning skills using national symbols.
Curated OER
Tile Patterns that Grow
Students 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.

Graphs of Exponential Functions
What does an exponential pattern look like in real life? After viewing a video of the population growth of bacteria, learners use the real-life scenario to collect data and graph the result. Their conclusion should be a new type of...

Why Do Banks Pay YOU to Provide Their Services?
How does a bank make money? That is the question at the based of a lesson that explores the methods banks use to calculate interest. Groups compare the linear simple interest pattern with the exponential compound interest pattern.
Curated OER
Crystal Growing
Students grow crystals and document their observations by recording timeing and growth. Additional characteristics of crystals are observed under a black light, by growing under different conditions and mineral content is determined.

I Wonder How Fast Manduca Grows Compared To Me
Learners study the Manduca bug and its growth data. They look for patterns and compare their own growth rate to that of the Manduca.
