In this college level algebra worksheet, students examine patterns, formulas that describe the pattern and determine the sum of an infinite pattern.  The one page worksheet contains five questions.  Answers...

In this multiplication tables instructional activity, students solve 5 problems in which a multiplication table is analyzed. Students write true or false for each statement and give an example to support each answer.

In this spelling worksheet, students learn to spell a list of 20 words. All words have short vowel sounds with two or three syllables. Students write each word one time on the lines. There are additional at-home spelling activities...

In this tracing lines worksheet, students trace 15 dotted examples of simple straight line patterns. There are no directions on the page.

In this earth science instructional activity, learners match 21 hurricane satellite images to their appropriate shape. They also answer 4 short answer questions about hurricane shape classification.

Learners create patterns in a table to mimic the function of an electronic spreadsheet. The result is a table that creates an addition table for decimals in intervals of one-tenth. While creating the pattern, pupils must thoroughly...

Don't leave this task on the shelf — use it is assess middle schoolers understanding of patterns. Participants try to discover a pattern in the number of bricks and planks used to make shelves. They then match descriptions...

It's a sign! Scholars analyze sine functions for patterns in their periods. The exploration advances beyond a simple function to the combination of two functions with even and odd coefficients. Their goal is to find a pattern between the...

Develop graphs by following the pattern. The resource provides opportunities for reviewing graphing linear equations. Pupils create tables to graph linear equations by using patterns whenever possible. The worksheet and video are part of...

A great worksheet for scaffolding critical thinking about mathematical concepts. This resource provides students with a brief explanation of multiples followed by 29 practice problems which gradually increase in difficulty. Several...

A list of nine verbs is provided for students to add different suffixes; a bank of five suffixes is also given. Only some of the suffixes actually work with verbs, though, so this is a good opportunity for discovery. Learners reflect on...

In this letter Q worksheet, students trace and practice examples of upper and lower case letter Qq. Students color a large quilt pattern and notice the geometric shapes.

Don't let the rules overrule the lesson. Mental math steps in and helps learners understand exponent patterns. The material focuses on the introductory problems of exponents, such as simplifying expressions. Teacher guides are...

Finally, it all adds up. Learners complete a number puzzle in which they investigate the sums of the digits one through nine in a cross pattern. They then try to determine what totals are possible and which ones are...

Working with transformations allows the class to take a turn for the better. The short assessment has class members perform transformations on the coordinate plane. The translations, reflections, and rotations create pattern designs on...

Before graphing and finding distances, learners investigate the coordinate plane and look at patterns related to plotted points. Points are plotted and the goal is to look at the horizontal and vertical distances between coordinates and...

Challenge the class to utilize their knowledge of linear and quadratic functions to determine the intersection of the parent quadratic graph and linear proportional graphs. Using the pattern for the solutions, individuals develop a...

Don't let a little challenge get between your pupils and their learning! Scholars compare two absolute value functions to recognize patterns and use them to build their own functions with outputs that are between the given. They then...

There is power in spreadsheet formulas and learners use this power to model quadratic data. Given a scatterplot of a parabola, pupils create formulas in a spreadsheet to populate the data. The formulas they use lead to an understanding...

Writing a general rule to model a specific pattern is a high-level skill. Your classes practice the important skill as they write rules describing the solutions to a system of equations with variable coefficients. As an added challenge,...

How many intersections can two absolute value functions have? Young scholars consider the question and then develop a set of rules that describe the number of solutions a given system will have. Using the parent function and the standard...

How many birthdays do leap year babies have in a lifetime? Learners explore the question among others in a lesson focused on different calendar systems. Given explanations of the Julian, Gregorian, and Martian calendars, individuals use...

Watch as your pupils' hearts get pumping! An interactive activity has individuals record their heart rates after completing different activities. Each task has a different degree of physical activity. They then graph their results and...

Height is dependent on weight—or is it the other way around? Given data from a physicians handbook, individuals compare the height and weight of males and females at different areas. They calculate differences and ratios to assist with...
