Learners create a pattern out of pattern blocks. In this math lesson plan, students work with a partner to investigate the pattern they have. Within that group, learners continue to design the pattern by adding the next two pieces....

In this sequence worksheet, learners identify the next three numbers in a given sequence.  The solution to the problem is provided.

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

Learners explore patterns. In this math lesson, students use a variety of objects to create patterns. Learners answer questions about the patterns they create.

First graders identify combinations and patterns in this lesson. They manipulate an alien picture with 10 arms - 5 red and 5 blue. They use an individual alien picture to identify as many combinations as possible. Students compare...

Fifth graders are given a set of manipulatives to use to develop patterns. In groups, they follow the directions to determine which blocks go with which pattern and put them into the correct sequence. To end the instructional activity,...

Young scholars use concrete and pictorial representation of geometric patterns to extend patterns. In this geometric patterns lesson plan, students identify patterns and extend them.

Students identify and reproduce simple patterns (e.g., red blocks alternating with blue blocks; clap-clap-stamp) and create and extend simple patterns using a variety of materials or actions (e.g., popsicle sticks, pebbles, stickers,...

Pupils identify and define various mathematical properties, such as the commutative properties of addition and multiplication, and the associative property of addition. They also reason and communicate mathematically by making...

Third graders incorporate math into dancing. In this algebra lesson, 3rd graders identify different shapes and patterns using dance movements. They relate the different creations to polygons as they incorporate the use of stretchy bands...

Fifth graders investigate the Maya's as mathematicians. In this Mayan math lessons, 5th graders work with the ancient Mayan numbering system by comparing it to the American Number System. They tell the differences and similarities...

Students explore adding 2-digit numbers. In this math lesson, students identify 2-digit numbers and use base ten blocks to practice adding. Students use addition to break a code.

Learners identify geometric patterns in quilts. For this geometry lesson, students view various types of quilts and identify the geometric shapes. Learners construct one hundred patch paper quilts using geometric shapes.

Youngsters become flexible problem solvers with this challenging activity. If there are 24 square tables in a restaurant, how many customers can be seated at one time? They can use manipulatives or draw pictures to help them find the...

Learners explore number sense by completing problems in class. In this patterns instructional activity, students examine a group of numbers and identify what the pattern is and how it should correctly continue. Learners practice...

Don't table the resource on writing expressions for relationships in tables. Scholars investigate relationships between variables and write algebraic expressions involving multiplication and division. These expressions help solve...

Old mathematicians never die; they just lose some of their functions. Studying sequences gives scholars an opportunity to use a new notation. Learners write functions to model arithmetic and geometric sequences and use them to find new...

Teach your class to think outside the box. Scholars use the concept of equality to solve a problem in the assessment task. They determine how to use a scale to identify the one box out of a set of nine boxes that is heavier than the others.

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...

Third graders perform a line dance in the study of math as a pattern. They create and discuss movement solutions derived from movement exploration. They observe that patterns exist in the areas of music and dance and follow the...

Sixth graders construct a rule about the number of sides found in a pattern of hexagons. In this mathematical problem solving lesson, 6th graders observe different hexagon patterns and create a rule about the relationship between the...

Learners view a video to discover how patterns in nature relate to math. They explore the concept of exponential growth by observing and creating fractals. They solve and design word problems.

Young scholars explore patterns. They observe a video, "Math Monsters." Students determine the next item in a sequence. Young scholars read books about patterns. They discuss patterns in quilts. Students visit a specified web site...

In this math worksheet, students examine a hundred chart. The ten by ten chart includes all numbers one to one-hundred. Students may identify patterns in the chart.
