Kids learn about the beautiful design work called Rangoli. Rangoli is a symbolic, geometric design drawn on the floor in Indian homes intended as a welcome to gods and guests alike. They'll learn about the tradition, view examples of the...

Students 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.

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...

In this strategies for problem-solving:  finding patterns worksheet, 4th graders use a given pattern to answer 3 questions, then determine another pattern to answer 3 more.

Students study the recurrence rules for patterns where the increase from one term to the next is not constant. They look for the recurrence rule on their own. They copy the pattern and create the next element, continue the pattern with...

Young scholars are introduced to some number patterns using buildings constructed with squares. They construct tables of patterns and finding the recurrence rule for a simple pattern where the increase from term to term is a constant.

Fifth graders recognize shape and number patterns. In groups, 5th graders use strategies to find patterns. They extend the patterns and give explanations as to how they found the pattern. Students use the computer and the hundreds...

In this addition patterns worksheet, students respond to 7 questions that require them to fill in the missing numbers in 7 patterns and then describe each of the patterns in their own words.

Fourth graders use a 100's chart, Unifix cubes, graph paper and colored pencils to experiment with patterns. They arrange their Unifix cubes on the 100's chart and then identify and record patterns on the graph paper.

Students recognize patterns in a numerical sequence, create new patterns and predict outcomes to established sequences.

Students survey patterns and relationships and then predict outcomes in real-world situations.

Students practice repeating rhythmic patterns in unison. Next, students work in groups to practice an alternate rhythmic pattern to Row, Row, Row Your Boat. They create their own rhythmic patterns for the song.

Sixth graders investigate the concept of patterns and how they can occur with numbers and the instructional activity focuses on the occurrance wiht shapes. They complete an activity investigating patterns using a story to set the tone of...

Students study the concept of patterns in geometry. For this pattern-making lesson, students locate various types of patterns in images provided. Students define the types of images that can create a pattern. Students also describe the...

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson includes a reading of And the...

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.

In this finding patterns worksheet, students use the problem solving strategy of understand, plan, solve, and look back to help them find the pattern in the swimming distances numbers. Students use the pattern to help them solve the word...

Students gain an understanding of shapes and patterns using Interactive Math Journey while reviewing the names of shapes and colors.

Students 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.

In this finding patterns in pyramids and prisms worksheet, 4th graders use two tables showing faces, edges and vertices for pyramids and prisms to answer six questions about the patterns.

Pupils examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.

For this on-line math worksheet, students complete 10 multiple choice questions where they find the missing number to a pattern by using subtraction. Students can check their answers at the end of the worksheet.

Students use pattern blocks to help them complete fraction problems. In this fraction lesson plan, students complete problems on worksheets provided.

Students review their numbers up to one hundred. Using a chart, they compare and predict patterns that might be in the numbers. They practice skip counting and grouping numbers. Using a spreadsheet, they graph different sets of numbers...
