Sequences, Shapes, Grids and Calculations
For this online math problems worksheet, students complete a variety of assignments including the concepts number sequences, shapes and grids, number calculations and substituting whole numbers for letters in equations. Students complete...
Curated OER
Mental Math Problems
In this sequencing worksheet, students make a number sequence chart by following the given rule, continue number sequences through seven additional numbers, and continue patterns. Students solve five multiple answer problems.
Curated OER
Seeing Dots
Your algebra learners interpret algebraic expressions, in order to compare their structures, using a geometric context. They also discern how the two expressions are equivalent and represent a pattern geometrically and algebraically.

Twenty Guesses—Information Theory
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...
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.
Curated OER
Sequences
In this sequences worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 3 different types of problems. First, they complete the missing numbers and determine the term-to-term rule. Then, students find the nth term of each sequence and draw the next...
Curated OER
Searching For A Pattern
Learners investigate the concept of number patterns. They practice recognizing various forms of them. Students solve different problems using multiples of different numbers. The multiples are then explained to be in a sequence.
Curated OER
Worksheet 5 1/2: Sequence
In this sequence worksheet, students compute sequence problems. They calculate problems dealing with the age of the universe, estimate population, time and rate. This one-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.
Curated OER
Turk-o-nacci Sequence
In this sequence activity, students use the Fibonacci sequence to determine the number of turkeys in a flock. This one-page activity contains 1 multi-step problem. The answer is provided at the bottom of the page.

Tetrominoes and Translations
Students explore geometry by participating in a pattern identification activity. In this tetrominoes lesson, students define the characteristics of congruent and symmetrical shapes. Students practice translating shapes across quadrants...
Curated OER
Book Title: One is a Snail, Ten is a Crab
Pupils read a story and write math problems. In this reading and math comprehension lesson, students preview and read the book "One is a Snail, Ten is a Crab". Pupils predict ways to get a sum of 11, write math equations and...
Curated OER
Sequences and Linear Equations
Students identify the formula to find the nth term. In this algebra lesson, students finish a pattern and identify missing parts in a sequence. They write an equation given a partial sequence.
Curated OER
Twice as Nice
In this patterns instructional activity, students analyze a series of geometric shapes and determine the pattern. Students use numbers or letters to represent each pattern.
Curated OER
Introduction to Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences
Students examine the concept of sequences. Students create a sequence using varied starting numbers, multipliers, and add on values. Students practice determining the starting values to use in order to produce a desired sequence.
Curated OER
Domino Patterns
In this patterns activity, students cut out 4 dominoes and paste them in the correct spaces in a long sequence of math picture patterns.
Curated OER
Ordering
Four sequences are missing some numbers; can your scholars fill them in? These aviation-themed number sequences require skip counting and counting backward. Beside each pattern learners can reference a jumbled set of numbers inside a...
Curated OER
Frogs Hopping by 2s
Hop to it! Beginning counters fill in water lily number sequences as a frog "hops" across them, skip counting by twos. There are five sequences in total, and some require counting backward. Learners can reference the two examples, which...
Curated OER
Points on a Line
Get your learners up and moving, all while reviewing numbers on the number line! For this activity, learners are grouped in teams outdoors. The teacher will have already created number lines on the ground (with chalk, tape, etc.), and...
