Your learners explore growing patterns by describing, extending, creating, and evaluating practical pattern problems in this three-day collaborative unit. Beginning with concrete patterns and function tables to extend and describe with a...

Upper graders work with number patterns. In this pattern lesson, learners recognize and continue number patterns and find the rules.  They do some as a class and complete an assessment. 

Build the pattern recognition skills of young mathematicians with this simple skills practice worksheet. Given nine different sequences of two-digit numbers, children must identify the pattern and determine the next three numbers in...

Here is an outstanding lesson plan on equivalent fractions! Using pattern blocks, learners are encouraged to structure their thinking by finding as many ways as possible to represent an equivalent fraction. By modeling equivalent...

Pattern recognition is an essential step in the development of young mathematicians fluency with the four basic operations. This simple skills practice worksheet asks children identify and complete three different numerical patterns,...

Finishing patterns can be fun and engaging. Here are nine different patterns that have learners determine the rule or determine which image or shape will come next in the sequence. A very well-done presentation.

Finding patterns is an essential skill for mathematicians of all ages. Follow along with Zoe as she walks step-by-step through the process of identifying and completing number patterns. Work through the Try It! problems as a whole class...

Further develop your class's understanding of patterns using the second video of this nine-part series. First introduce the key vocabulary words pattern, core, and step, using shape patterns to explain the meaning of each. Then apply...

The generation of a number, or shape pattern, is the focus of this math lesson plan. Pupils are presented with a variety of patterns shapes, and number patterns, then use worksheets embedded in the plan to gain further practice. The...

Track down the Cyberchase episode that this lesson is associated with. Using a worksheet that is embedded in the plan, learners must find the next two numbers and shapes (a double pattern). Once these have been discovered, pupils try...
