Generating Polynomials from Patterns
Patterns and polynomials go hand in hand. Budding mathematicians analyze sequences of dot diagrams to discover the patterns in the number of white dots and black dots. They use the identified patterns to write and simplify a polynomial...

Arithmetic Sequences
Twenty-eight problems, two pages, and an answer key all related to number patterns, recursive formula, and arithmetic sequence. Leaners find the next number in the pattern or sequence and determine the arithmetic formula to go with the...
Curated OER
Multiplication Sequences
In this math worksheet, students learn that a sequence is a set of numbers which follows a mathematical rule. Students look at math sequences and fill in the missing numbers and also explain in words what the pattern is. Some of the...
