Fun with Patterns
Pupils identify, extend and create patterns using various types of manipulatives and then work a pattern game in the computer lab to reinforce what was learned.
Curated OER
Pretty Patterns
Students discuss shape and number patterns and play a game practicing completing patterns. Then they rotate through five workstations that reinforce the concept of patterning.

Math Worksheet: Patterns Again
In this math patterns worksheet, students see 10 math patterns with repeating geometric shapes. They choose the shape that will come next in the pattern from 3 choices.
Curated OER
Recognizing Math Patterns
In this math worksheet students see 10 sets of math patterns. Each pattern is made up of repeating geometric shapes. Students mark the choice which would complete the pattern.
Curated OER
Making Patterns
Pupils utilize skittles and unifix cubes to practice the recognition and creation of a variety of patterns. The created patterns are copied onto sheets and the colors are labeled.
Curated OER
Tile Patterns that Grow
Students explore how a pattern built with square tiles grows and describe the change from stage to stage. They predict later stages of a tile design sequence and create math equations related to the growth of tile designs.
Curated OER
Create Your Own Pattern
In this patterning worksheet, 1st graders create their own patterns. Students complete 4 self made patterns using colors and shapes in each.
Curated OER
Find a Pattern
For this patterns worksheet, students find the next 3 numbers in the sequence of patterns. Students complete this for 9 patterns.
Curated OER
Dividing with Fractions
Use paper strips or models to relate division problems to division of fraction problems. Since the materials can be broken up, it helps them to show how they can complete repeated subtraction with fractions and not just whole numbers.
