Investigation - Patterns/Functions

This modern animation and discussion of the ancient secrets of Pascal's triangle manages to be topical, engaging, and mathematically deep all at the same time. A great introduction to the power of number theory across multiple math...

Take your class on a field trip to Fractalland where they'll learn all about number and shape patterns. Based on Disney's movie Alice in Wonderland, this resource takes young mathematicians on an adventure as they explore patterns in...

Build a pyramid of sums. An interactive presents the first five rows of Pascal's Triangle as a pyramid. Pupils match missing entries in the pyramid and continue the pattern to determine entries of other rows. The learners use the entries...

This page gives a description of how to use Pascal's Triangle to determine the total number of possible combinations for a sample set. Also provides a helpful example.

Students explore the concept of Pascal's Triangle. In this Pascal's Triangle lesson, students use an applet called 'Coloring Multiples' to explore Pascal's Triangle. Students develop patterns starting with various numbers in Pascal's...

In this activity the student will identify number patterns formed in Pascal's triangle when coloring remainders.

Students examine the patterns in Pascal's Triangle. In this recognizing lesson plan, students view a model of Pascal's Triangle and describe the patterns of the multiples. Students identify the shapes that are made within Pascal's Triangle.

In this online two-dimensional number patterns activity, students solve eight in-depth two-dimensional number patterns. Students check their answers as they go.

Contains a brief outline on Patterns In the Pascal's Triangle.

While the lesson focuses on right triangles, this activity offers a great way to practice the area of all triangles through an interactive webpage. The activity begins with the class taking a square paper and cutting in in half; can they...
