Kids can work through this series of linked division problems to determine patterns and practice calculator use. They start by making calculations as a class, then work on a given set of division and multiplication problems intended to...

Finishing patterns can be fun and engaging. Here are nine different patterns that have learners determine the rule or determine which image or shape will come next in the sequence. A very well-done presentation.

This is a really cool math resource! There are nineteen different slides containing five math problems each. They are intended to be used as daily math warm ups and address skills such as, addition, problem solving, missing addends, word...

Kids work to recognize and extend number sequences. They determine the rule in order to find the missing number in each sequence given. They review the concept, practice finishing sequences with a calculator, and explain each rule. 

Look at patterns in bivariate data. Eight sample items illustrate the eighth grade statistics and probability standards. The Smarter Balanced Sample multiple-choice items focus on numerical and categorical bivariate data. The slide show...

Who knew two hands could solve so many problems? Kids learn the 9's times tables trick with their fingers, then work through a series of 9's related math problems intended on building strong number sense and pattern recognition. Great...

Pattern recognition is a very important skill to foster in younger children. It helps boost algebraic reasoning, logical reasoning, and mathematical reasoning skills. Here are 11 different shape patterns for learners to complete. They...

Learning about patterns can be an enjoyable experience using this activity. In this colorful presentation, learners look at a simple pattern and identify what comes next. There are several examples involving both shapes and number...

The class thinks about symmetry and patterns. They view several symmetrical patterns represented as dots with a mirror in between. They discuss which images are symmetrical and which are not, then color in dots to complete a few...

Reinforcing the math terms, "before," "between," and "after," is the focus of this math PowerPoint. Young mathematicians must fill in the missing number in a sequence of numbers shown on each slide. This presentation should provide...

This series of slides gives learners an opportunity to count on by 10's in number sequences then discuss how to apply counting on to addition and subtraction problems. Learners count on and back by 1's, 10's, and 100's.

Play a game to review a variety of math concepts. Factoring, square roots, number sequences, division, multiplication, order of operations, and word problems are all covered in this Millionaire style quiz game. Tip: Keep this resource as...

Provide your class with a comprehensive set of examples that help define sequences. They view a wide variety of sequences that range from animals, to letters and sounds. They work through each sequence to determine what should come next....

When students explore mathematics through patterns they will build a strong number sense and creative analysis skills. This presentation shows students that 0's, 1's, 2's, 5's, 6's, and 9's all have patterns. Tip: Before revealing each...

If you like to start each day with a new math challenge or warm-up, this resource is a must have. It includes 36 slides, each containing a different math challenge that stimulates algebraic reasoning, problem solving, and basic math...

What are terms, factors, and coefficients? This slideshow provides definitions and examples of various parts of algebraic expressions, and provides guided practice problems in writing and identifying parts of algebraic expressions for...

Plug in this presentation for a quick start to your day. The class reviews the 6 times tables how they relate to division and then work through patterns to build logical reasoning and sequencing skills. A wonderful warm up or problem...
