Growing Patterns and Sequences
Learners explore, discover, compare, and contrast arithmetic and geometric sequences in this collaborative, hands-on activity. They build and analyze growing patterns to distinguish which kind of sequence is represented by a set of data...
Inside Mathematics
Squares and Circles
It's all about lines when going around. Pupils graph the relationship between the length of a side of a square and its perimeter. Class members explain the origin in context of the side length and perimeter. They compare the graph to the...
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this pattern completion instructional activity, learners observe groups of six patterns and add the final two patterns. Students complete five sets of patterns.

Finding Sums and Terms for Geometric and Algebraic Sequences
In this sequences activity, students solve for the sum of ten sequences. Students solve for a specified term of the geometric or arithmetic sequence in fourteen other problems.
Inside Mathematics
Hexagons
Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.

Geometric Progressions
In this geometric progression worksheet, students examine a sequence and determine the next number. This one-page worksheet contains 15 problems.
Concord Consortium
Boards III
Learn to visualize mathematical patterns as a folded pattern. Beginning with a visual display, the task encourages pupils to view sequences as a folded table. The pattern of the table then becomes a formula in a spreadsheet that...
Concord Consortium
Boards IV
Build a connection between algebraic sequences and spreadsheets. Learners examine a specific folding pattern and convert the pattern into a spreadsheet. The goal of the spreadsheet is to produce a sequence of a specific pattern modeled...
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, students analyze the geometric shapes in each of 5 rows. Students determine the pattern and then draw the next three shapes that would continue the sequence.
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, students analyze a row of geometric shapes in a pattern. Students draw the next three shapes that would come in the sequence. There are 5 problems.
