Students recognize shapes, designs and numbers that form patterns. Using their surroundings, they identify common patterns. They create their own patterns in various software programs and share them with the class.

First graders read a book about patterns and then practice reproducing patterns. In this pattern lesson plan, 1st graders continue patterns that are already established by using manipulatives.

Students practice their patterning skills using national symbols.

Fifth graders are given a set of manipulatives to use to develop patterns. In groups, they follow the directions to determine which blocks go with which pattern and put them into the correct sequence. To end the lesson, they complete a...

In this problem solving practice worksheet, students solve 6 problems that require them to identify what is wrong in the 6 given patterns.

Fourth graders use pattern blocks to complete patterns, puzzle, and area centers. In this pattern blocks lesson plan, 4th graders also demonstrate fractions and use the SMART Board with their pattern blocks.

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

Fifth graders examine how to see patterns by showing how things work together. They identify, analyze and determine a rule for predicting and extending numberical patterns involving operations of whole numbers, decimals and fractions.

For this cause and effect practice worksheet, students collaborate as they complete 6 exercises that require them examine sentence patterns.

Students explore geometry by participating in a visual illustration activity. In this pattern identification lesson, students explore inside their classroom and discuss patterns they find while tracing them on paper. Students attend an...

Fifth graders investigate the use of patterns in a data set. The set is disolayed visually using cubes. This helps struggling students to see the quantity in order to make comparisons more effectively.

Sixth graders create polygons. In this shapes lesson plan, 6th graders explore prefixes such as oct, tri, quad, pent, etc. and share their findings. Students use pattern blocks to create two different polygons and label them.

Students explore patterns. In this math lesson, students use a variety of objects to create patterns. Students answer questions about the patterns they create.

In this patterns practice worksheet, students study the 5 shape patterns sets. Students identify the missing shapes in each set in order to complete the patterns.

In this patterns practice worksheet, students study the 21 shape patterns sets. Students identify the missing shapes in each set in order to complete the patterns.

In this shape patterns learning exercise, students identify the shape pattern in each example. Students select the shape that comes next in the 5 patterns.

Students use pattern blocks to help them complete fraction problems. In this fraction lesson plan, students complete problems on worksheets provided.

In this math patterns activity, 1st graders identify the shapes in the 6 problems and select the shape that continues each pattern.

Second graders review the spelling of words with the long O sound. In this phonics lesson, 2nd graders brainstorm words with the long O sound, gain exposure to common long O spelling patterns and sort long O words based upon the spelling...

In this fingerprint pattern worksheet, students use lead pencils and paper to create prints of their fingers. They find their fingerprint patterns and compare them to their peers. They also identify a "mystery" print.

In this shape patterns worksheet, students identify the shape patterns within each example and draw the missing shapes to complete the 14 patterns.

Students assign value to different shapes of pattern blocks, and estimate values and use process of elimination to determine values. In this pattern block values lesson plan, students trace each block on a worksheet and use 5 blocks to...

Third graders review the commutative and associative property in mathematics. Using a worksheet, they work together to identify the patterns between the 32 triangles. To end the lesson, they create their own array and exchange it with...

Students in a teacher education program enhance their awareness of patterns. They discover how to support their students in developing this skill in mathematical terms. They role play the role of a K-2 student and collect images from...
