Why Do Banks Pay YOU to Provide Their Services?
How does a bank make money? That is the question at the based of a activity that explores the methods banks use to calculate interest. Groups compare the linear simple interest pattern with the exponential compound interest pattern.

Exploring Patterns
Third graders state the rule and next shape or number in the patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, 3rd graders recognize different patterns and continue them.
Curated OER
Searching For A Pattern
Learners investigate the concept of number patterns. They practice recognizing various forms of them. Students solve different problems using multiples of different numbers. The multiples are then explained to be in a sequence.
