Study Jams! Geometric Patterns
Here is a fun online activity that learners can use to practice imitating patterns! Along the way, they are exposed to the names of geometric shapes including rhombus, hexagon, octagon, and decagon.

Number Patterns: Square Sizes
Size up an interactive on square sizes. Scholars adjust the side length of a square to represent the next term in a geometric pattern. They answer a set of challenge questions on the pattern to complete the activity.

Sums of Geometric Series
Geometric series either get bigger or approach a single number. So, how do you know which it is? An interactive presents three different geometric series with varying common ratios. With the aid of patterns, pupils determine values of r...

Geometry 3D Shapes: Euler's Theorem
How do you get a theorem named after you? Euler knows what it takes! The third lesson of five asks pupils to use an interactive activity to compare the faces, vertices, and edges of seven different three-dimensional solids. They use...

Visual Patterns: Building the Queen's Tower
A resource fit for a queen. Scholars recognize and continue a pattern in towers people are building for a queen. They write and use an algebraic expression for the number of tiles in the towers.

Sequence: The Sequence Calculator
Work through a sequence in discovering number patterns. Using the interactive, pupils explore arithmetic and geometric sequences by setting the initial value and the common difference or ratio. Learners distinguish between the two types...

Sequencer
Take the first step into graphing sequences. Learners set the starting number, multiplier, add-on, and the number of steps for a sequence. Using the inputs, the interactive calculates and plots the sequence on the coordinate plane. Users...

Sums of Finite Arithmetic Series: Triangular Numbers
Using a slider, scholars build triangular numbers and their associated rectangles and use the geometric display to find the pattern to determine the next triangular number. They then relate that number to the area of the rectangle to...

University of Cambridge: Nrich: Net Cuts
In this enrichment game, the nets for nine solids are displayed. The twist is that each net has been cut into two pieces. The challenge is find the pieces that go together.

Nctm: Illuminations: Creating, Describing, and Analyzing Patterns
Encourage students to use visualization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to build their own patterns or recreate one from given square arrays.

Shodor Interactivate: Sierpinski's Carpet
Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Carpet, a fractal made from subdividing a square into nine smaller squares and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.

Shodor Interactivate: Koch's Snowflake
Step through the generation of the Koch Snowflake, a fractal made from deforming the sides of a triangle, and explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.
