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
Catch the Beat
Use this rhythm and pattern activity during transition times or on it own. Start by introducing a rhythm with 2, 3, or 4 beats; use your feet, hands, or entire body to demonstrate. Once learners have figured out the pattern, they join...
Mathematics Assessment Project
Sidewalk Stones
One block, two blocks, white blocks, gray blocks. In the high school assessment task, learners investigate patterns of sidewalk stones to develop a quadratic expression for each colored block. Young mathematicians then use the expression...
