Put on your thinking caps because middle school math has never been more interesting in this huge resource full of thought provoking questions. Written as a newsletter, the resource has 10 two-page newsletters with a variety of...

Math is all about finding patterns. For 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...

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.

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...

In this math patterns worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to solve 6 problems that require them to complete messages by finding patterns.

In this fall patterns worksheet, students examine the 5 rows of fall foliage and select the correct tree at the end of each box to continue the pattern.

Sidewalk patterns ... it's definitely not foursquare! Learners investigate patterns in sidewalk blocks, write an expression to represent the pattern, and then solve problems using the expressions.

Learners respond to 11 questions that require them to examine numbers and identify patterns. They also solve four math word problems regarding patterns.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but these sticks will make me smarter. Pupils examine arrays of sticks to determine the next array in a pattern. They use the number of sticks added to each previous array to determine a recursive...

In this number patterns and sequences worksheet, high schoolers find 7 formulas to represent a sequence.  Students use a chart with sequences and they must find a formula to represent each sequence.

In this number patterns worksheet, students solve 10 problems in which a sequence of 7 numbers is analyzed and the pattern determined. Students continue the pattern and write the next two numbers.

Designers in Prague are not diagonally challenged. The mini-assessment provides a complex pattern made from blocks. Individuals use the pattern to find the area and perimeter of the design. To find the perimeter, they use the Pythagorean...

How are your second graders progressing in their math skills? Find out with a series of math assessment activities. With baseline assessment score sheets for each skill, you can track how well your kids are adding, subtracting, telling...

In this math patterns worksheet, students solve 6 problems in which the number, letter or shape pattern in a series is determined. Students mark the choice that shows how the pattern would be continued.

Scholars identify and continue the numerical pattern for the number of wheels on a train. Using the established pattern and its inverse, they determine whether a number of wheels is possible. Pupils finish...

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.

Even or not, here I come. Groups investigate the parity of products and sums of whole numbers in the 17th lesson in a series of 21. Using dots to represent numbers, they develop a pattern for the products of two even numbers; two odd...

In this number patterns worksheet, learners solve 4 problems in which a series of numbers is analyzed and the pattern determined. Students fill in the next number in the pattern.

Test that number sense with this 10 question quiz. This quiz contains 10 questions intended to assess how well second graders understand standard form, expanded form, number patterns, and numeric quantity or value.

In this Halloween math patterns worksheet, learners cut and paste the pieces from the bottom of the sheet in the correct spaces to complete 4 patterns.

You'll never look at floor tiles the same again. An assessment task prompts learners to investigate relationships between patterns involving squares and kites to determine angle measurements. They then prove...

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...

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...

Here, second graders are tasked to find the patterns that have an even number of tiles. They are asked to think about why these patterns are even or odd and explain how they know.
