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...

Which square comes next? Each of these sequences is made up of patterned squares in a continuing order. Learners examine more squares to choose which one(s) would correctly continue the pattern. None of these have very complex sequences;...

Spot the pattern! Pupils examine nine patterns using numbers 0-13. There are two blanks for learners to complete the pattern. None of these involve difficult math or complex concepts- this is for young pattern-finders. A bonus question...

In this patterns worksheet, students look at 6 different patterns and continue each pattern on each accessory in sequence as they began.

Find the pattern is the name of the game! Learners examine different patterns represented by numbers, shapes, and words. They must describe the pattern, predict the result in a given position, and find an equation that represents a...

Give scholars the gift of knowledge with a present-themed pattern block mat designed to reinforce geometry skills. As they compile the blocks in the correct order to complete patterns, they form a lovely picture of a holiday gift.

Add a touch of winter flair to geometry practice with a pattern block mat shaped as a snowflake. Preschoolers and kindergartners can work on both shape recognition and pattern identification as they form beautiful snowflakes.

Put the tree back in geometry! Explore shapes and celebrate Christmas while using pentagon, square, and triangle pattern blocks to create a Christmas tree.

These patterns are perfect for learners brand new to counting. They examine 9 number sequences, completing the last two numbers. The codes are easy to crack here- they count by 1, 2, and 3. For a bonus sequence, scholars count by 10....

Find the pattern! Eighteen number sequences challenge scholars to identify and complete the pattern, adding at least four digits to the given numbers. All the sequences here involve skip counting by various single-digit numbers,...

Explore number attributes and skip counting through patterns! Scholars find the pattern in each of these sequences and continue it by writing in the remaining values. They count consistently by various intervals, sometimes forwards and...

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...

Follow the pattern to find what comes next. Youngsters analyze shape patterns to continue the sequence in the provided space. The three patterns increase in difficulty, and then scholars have a chance to create two of their own....

Students explore patterns involving objects or figures and geometric shapes. They identify the missing shapes in patterns and discuss what would come next in the pattern, analyze patterns using different objects, and complete a...

Help your budding writers become familiar with letter shapes using a pattern worksheet. They examine three patterns, tracing a dotted line to continue them to the end of the page. For each, they also draw the pattern freehand below. This...

Examine scenarios involving number patterns. Learners complete a series of activities, including working with Pascal's triangle ando completing chart activities based on different pricing for pizza toppings. An included extension has...

What's the pattern? Learners skip count to complete 12 sequences, some of which increase and some of which decrease. As they solve each number pattern they count by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 100, getting some extra subtraction and addition...

Although this fractions exercise may seem difficult at first, it's really quite simple and intended for beginners to mixed numbers. Scholars complete 15 number sequences by adding two or three mixed numbers or decimal numbers. However,...

What's the pattern? Youngsters examine four sets of sequential images to detect a pattern and continue it onto a fourth image. Ask them to verbalize what they noticed and how they continued this pattern. Consider extending the concept...

Cool circle patterns! To investigate patterns of shading in circles, learners use the values for specific examples of the pattern to generate a verbal rule for the arrangement.

Fifth graders analyze patterns and begin looking at function tables. This is a pertinent preparation for graphing patterns. In fact, consider giving your class a piece of graph paper and then teach them how!

Use geometric patterns to teach your class how to write functions. The assessment task has scholars consider a pattern of dots to draw the next picture of the pattern. Pupils then analyze the pattern, which helps them develop a function...

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...

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