Complete the Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, students analyze the geometric shapes in each of 5 rows. Students determine the pattern and then draw the next three shapes that would continue the sequence.
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, students analyze a row of geometric shapes in a pattern. Students draw the next three shapes that would come in the sequence. There are 5 problems.

Geo-Wrap Vests
First graders use geometric shapes to create and extend patterns. Students read a book and view African garments. They identify patterns in the garments. Students create and decorate a paper vest with geometric patterns.
Curated OER
Why is this lesson constructivist?
Students formulate a definition of tessellations by comparing and contrasting different patterns and shapes of real objects. They discuss the relatioship between shapes and patterns as well as their function in the real world. Students...
