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...

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

To complete these number patterns mathematicians must determine by what number each is constantly increasing. However, this isn't your typical skip counting; scholars count by numbers like 18, 60, and even 101 to fill in the missing...

Math is all about finding patterns. In this ask, scholars first investigate a sequence formed by squaring the sum of the digits in the previous term. They go on to investigate a second sequence and write an algebraic expression for this...

Tighten up your class's grammar with this straightforward activity on sentence patterns. After a short review about sentence patterns, clauses, and subjects and verbs, ten questions prompt young writers to identify the parts of the...

Before learners become writers they need to feel comfortable moving a pencil from left to right in various patterns. Use these exercises to give budding printers some fine motor practice. They complete three patterns by tracing a dotted...

In this patterns worksheet, students read the four steps to find the next three terms in a math sequence. Students find the pattern and write the next three terms in 13 problems.

Explore spelling patterns with this multi-step worksheet featuring the /oa/ sound. Learners read a brief introduction explaining that this sound can be achieved by three different vowel combinations. They complete a different...

Introduce your young math scholars to functions. Because the answer is explained at the bottom of the page, consider projecting this and covering it up until you hear the class responses. They observe a rule (in this case to add 15) and...

A simple set of practice sheets deals with sentence structure and patterns. The 117-page packet includes 10 units of skills, varying from identifying parts of speech in a sentence to writing the correct part to make a sentence...

Ready to study inequalities with your class? Use this worksheet to solve multi-step inequalities and graph the solutions. The document would be great to use as a study guide as you present the material, or could easily be modified and...

This resource is a stitch. Kids learn the basics of hand and machine sewing, how to sew on buttons, how to construct and repair clothing, and how to use patterns to create decorative ornaments.

In this finding patterns worksheet, students use the problem solving strategy of understand, plan, solve, and look back to help them find the pattern in the swimming distances numbers. Students use the pattern to help them solve the word...

In this finding patterns worksheet, students read the word problem about costume costs and study the graph. Students then follow the steps of understand, plan, solve, and look back to find the pattern.

In this patterns in nature worksheet, students read about the Fibonacci Spiral, then follow the directions to plot one on the graph paper and draw the spiral, with links to more information.

In this pattern learning exercise, students complete a graphic organizer to help solve a problem following 4 steps: understand, plan, solve and look back. Houghton Mifflin text is referenced.

Scholars build a weather station equipped with a wind vane, rain gauge, and barometer. Following an informative page about the weather, learners follow steps to build their pieces then turn into meteorologists to chart the weather they...

Introduce your pupils to the hundreds chart! This pair of worksheets is designed to walk them through the patterns they see in the chart as they count by ones and 10s. They fill in missing numbers on a hundreds chart, using guided steps....

If you can multiply binomials, you can factor trinomials! This is the premise for a activity on factoring. Pupils look for patterns in the binomials they multiply and apply them in reverse. Examples include leading coefficients of...

Here are two addition-related exercises. However, bear in mind, the explanations are featured below each of them. Use this as an all-class warm up, revealing the explanations if and when you see fit. First, examine the four sets of...

In this frieze pattern worksheet, students draw frieze patterns that can be constructed from a given motif. They perform translations, glide reflections, horizontal and vertical reflections and 180 degree rotations. This one-page...

In this reflections and rotations worksheet, learners reflect and rotate lines in graphs and draw lines of symmetry through patterns. Students complete 24 problems.

To examine mathematical functions in a modeling situation pupils combine quadratic and step functions to represent a presented scenario. They both graph and write a function to represent data shown in a table. 

In this number sequence activity, learners fill in 40 missing numbers in sequence on 10 different number lines. Students calculate each single-digit step up for each one.
