Fourth graders play the game, How Does My Pattern Grow, they use shapes to extend patterns of growing flowers. They read the instructions and extending nine patterns. Students are given a paper copy of the follow-up exercises once the...

In this pattern worksheet, students tell which shape should come last in a patterned row, 4 rows total. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Pairs work as engineering teams to design and build model bridges from drinking straws and tape. In this third segment in a series of 10, teams compete in an attempt to build the strongest bridge. To help with the design, the groups...

It's all about lines when going around. Pupils graph the relationship between the length of a side of a square and its perimeter. Class members explain the origin in context of the side length and perimeter. They compare the graph to the...

An instructive lesson provides the basics on how to perform rotations on the coordinate plane. The handout also covers rotating about a point other than the origin and how to perform a series of transformations. 

Explore the world of fractions by using pattern blocks to show how different shapes can divide a hexagon. Elementary schoolers work in groups to complete these problems and to answer questions. Later, they work complete an independent...

In this patterns worksheet, 3rd graders match tiles with the shapes in a larger image. Students copy the tiles into the squares of grid paper to create the specified design.

Young scholars describe geographical places through art, music, writing, and math. They compile information in booklets which may be published.

Students identify and form a pattern out of 2-D shapes, then transfer this pattern into creating placemats.

For this symmetry worksheet, students fill in the shapes with pattern blocks to create a design so the dotted line is one of symmetry. Students trace and label each pattern and then explain how they know the design has a line of symmetry.

In this worksheet, students examine picture patterns which have blank boxes beneath each picture. Students translate the pattern by coloring the boxes. Example: rose, rose, bird, rose, rose. (red, red, blue, red, red).

In this pattern worksheet, students complete patterns in rows, 12 rows total. Patterns are varied and set up in a graphic organizer.

In this patterns worksheet, students analyze a series of geometric shapes and determine the pattern. Students use numbers or letters to represent each pattern.

Young scholars identify and explore the attributes of polygons. They design and create a quilt square using polygons, and produce a class quilt.

Learners explore the history and purpose of quilts in early America. They create and name their own unique quilt blocks. Students combine their quilt blocks with other learners in the class to create a class quilt.

Third graders listen as teacher snaps her fingers in a certain pattern and then join in as they become familiar with the pattern and then repeating it. They observe a patterns of shapes and repeat after the teacher has explained it....

In this math patterns learning exercise, students look at the patterns and write the next shape for the patterns. Students complete 5 examples.

In these patterns worksheets, students complete 4 pages of activities for patterns. Students improve their visual interpretation skills with the activities.

Young scholars apply what they have learned, from Eight Hands Round a Patchwork Alphabet, about how quilt blocks got their names by constructing and naming a quilt block pattern of their own using pattern blocks and pattern block paper.

In this pattern block learning exercise, students use pattern blocks to create a symmetric design within the shapes. The designs must follow four different rules.

First graders describe and create simple patterns. They identify patterns in the environment. They extend and reproduce patterns.

Students expand their knowledge of quadrilaterals and identify basic symmetrical forms. Over three weeks, they explore the math, application, and discussion of symmetry. After conducting Internet research, students create symmetrical...

In this construction geometric shapes worksheet, student use the software program for instruction then construction shapes and bisect angles for four questions.

Learners experience how to illustrate some of the many connections between number and geometry. Through this 2-3 day focus on square numbers and triangular numbers, students make connections among mathematical topics.
