Design Patterns in Everyday Life
Students find symbols and patterns in everyday life. In this patterns lesson, students break into groups and look for specific patterns and symbols. Students record their findings. Students create a graphic organizer with the information.
Curated OER
Patterns
Students identify patterns in equations. In this algebra lesson, students write equations of problems with recurring patterns. They relate and model real life situation using functions.

Hexagons
Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.
Curated OER
National Symbol Patterns
Students discuss and create their own patterns. They practice and improve on making patterns of their own using red, white, and blue paper for a national theme. The symbols are based on what the teacher picks for the class.

Visual and Number Patterns
Fourth graders develop strategies for identifying geometric and number patterns. In this mathematical patterns lesson, 4th graders use pattern blocks to make repeating patterns with numbers and shapes. Students then explore number...
Curated OER
Number Patterns
Fourth graders recognize patterns in a series of numbers and symbols. They also make their own patterns and explain them in writing. After practicing with a worksheet imbedded in this plan, 4th graders attempt to make up their own number...

Playing with Patterns
Young scholars use objects and symbols to create original linear patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also translate patterns from one modality to another.
Curated OER
Recognizing Patterns
Students explore the concept of patterns. In this patterns instructional activity, students use applets to manipulate tessellations. Students predict the next number in a sequence by recognizing patterns.
Curated OER
Patterns and Literature
Students create their own patterns. They discuss the reasons why Easter eggs are used in Easter celebrations. They also identify the elements of literature.
Curated OER
Extending Geometric and Numeric Patterns
Students study patterns. They construct growing patterns using pattern blocks and isosceles right triangles. They verbally describe the patterns and state the rule that describes the relationship involving the number of pattern blocks...
Curated OER
Repeating Patterns
Young scholars explore growth patterns by using manipulatives such as pattern blocks, investigate growth pattern of pattern, record growth in T-chart, describe how pattern is growing, and predict number of blocks needed to extend pattern.
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.
Curated OER
Finding Patterns with Frogs
Students create patterns. In this math lesson, students complete and create patterns using pattern blocks or disks. Students analyze the patterns they see.
Curated OER
Follow the Pattern
Students survey patterns and relationships and then predict outcomes in real-world situations.
Curated OER
Patterns That Grow
Students investigate growing patterns. In this additive patterns instructional activity, students analyze the core of growing patterns. Students extend additive patterns based on the core.
Curated OER
Finding Patterns in Fractals
Students discover patterns and sequences. They use a website to explore patterns and fractals. Students share their discovery of fractals and their patterns with the class. They develop a list of patterns used in everyday life.
