Patterns
Second graders create an ABAB pattern with their name. In this early elementary math lesson, 2nd graders first model their names in an ABAB pattern with unifix cubes. They then recreate the pattern using letter stamps on KidPix.
Curated OER
Squaring Off
Students define examples of patterns and explore the makeup and purpose of patterns found in nature. They create models illustrating the patterns researched in class and relaying the purpose of patterns in various natural objects.
Curated OER
Identifying Shapes and Matching
Students recognize shapes and repeating shapes can make a pattern. In this patterns activity, students identify pictures of shapes as patterns or not patterns. Students describe how the pattern is made.

Line Dance is a Pattern!
Fifth graders apply the pattern of a line dance to different music tempos.
Curated OER
Using Tens Frames To Build Addition And Subtraction Facts To Ten
Students review the basic addition facts through ten. They use tens frames to show number patterns and number families. They also form subtraction facts to ten using dot patterns on a quinary frame. Given a number sentence they find...
Curated OER
Tessellations
Students create tessellations. In this geometry instructional activity, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.
Curated OER
Kente Cloth
Students explore patterns and identify, extend, and translate color patterns. They discuss the origin and function of Kente cloth from Ghana, and discuss the patterns they see in students' clothing. Students color in a variety of...
