In this activity, students develop algorithms for generating and generalizing patterns related to triangle and square geometric models.

In this activity, students investigate patterns in ordered pairs generated by constructing a sequence of similar shapes. They then use the patterns and the calculator to predict the perimeter of a specific shape in the sequence.

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...

Archeologists, when classifying artifacts, often take note of the physical properties or attributes of artifacts, such as the materials from which the artifacts are made, and their size, shape, function, and decoration. Friezes are often...

Students 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. Students also find the Y-value of a function if the X-value is...

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a two dimensional design, and use the calculator to determine the value of the design.

This hands-on instructional activity uses exploration and discovery to help young scholars determine the coordinates of the vertices of various figures when translated, rotated, or reflected in a coordinate plane. The exploration phase...

In this activity, students' will use a pair of motion detectors to record the cartesian coordinates of a rod moving in a star-shaped pattern and calculate the distances moved between the vertices of the star. They also compare these...
