Students use logic and reasoning to answer problems. Through interpreting information and results in the context to examine patterns. They examine how to solve the problems using strategy in mathematics.

Seventh graders gather data to determine the relationships between the base and height of rectangles with fixed perimeters and express the relationships using words and symbols. Students build rectangles with pipe cleaners. They create...

Students practice figuring out how items have been sorted. They also sort buttons in small cooperative groups. They color and sort their own paper buttons and then give their button sort to another student to see if he or she can figure...

Students discuss how numbers increase when exponential growth is occurring. They view a video and compare exponential and linear growth with a graphing calculator.

Students multiply by one-digit whole numbers.

Young mathematicians extend their knowledge of rational numbers on a number line to graph inequalities by first using number cards to compare rational numbers. They finish by using similar reasoning to graph inequalities on a number line.

Students recall basic multiplication facts by writing answers on a wheel form, competing against other teams to finish the wheels. They review multiplication facts on a Spinning Wheels Web Lesson.

Second graders practice the multiples of three as an introduction to multiplying by three.

Link to Learning is a site popular among Ontario teachers. This collection of sites addresses aome of the Patterning and Algebra expectations in the Ontario Math curriculum for Kindergarten to Grade 8.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Two activities on number patterns. The first gives the rule and students must complete the pattern. In the second, they are given the pattern and must identify the rule.

Generate patterns using given rules. Identify relationships between terms. Graph ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the patterns. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...

Students will build, extend, describe, predict, graph and generate rules for patterns and functions designed to help students understand the connection between geometric and numerical patterns (younger students) as well as between...

Incorporating concepts in algebra, number sense, patterning, data collection, and geometry, this lesson engages students in various hands-on activities to explore the relationship between regular polygons and the number of diagonals...

This lesson focuses on Fibonacci numbers, a pattern based on the sum of the two previous numbers. It offers examples and practice exercises using some form of Fibonacci numbers.

This lesson focuses on Pascal's Triangle, a number pyramid in which every cell is the sum of the two cells directly above. It contains all binomial coefficients, as well as many other number sequences and patterns.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This lesson covers how to find a pattern and write a recursive rule. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice and attempt practice problems.

Middle schoolers will determine the rule for the number of jumps and slides of the pair of frogs. Printable lesson.

Use this interactive game to improve your knowledge and understanding of patterns and algebra. Can you describe a rule to follow where you make the least moves? Just follow the instructions below it.

In this video from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad must figure out the new input/output pattern on Hacker's larger cyberfrog.
