Growing, Growing, Gone
Budding mathematicians identify growing patterns in numbers and songs then create their own patterns. They look at number patterns and language patterns and then create their own using money and footprints.

Growing Patterns and Sequences
Learners explore, discover, compare, and contrast arithmetic and geometric sequences in this collaborative, hands-on activity. They build and analyze growing patterns to distinguish which kind of sequence is represented by a set of data...

Patterns That Grow
Students investigate growing patterns. In this additive patterns lesson, students analyze the core of growing patterns. Students extend additive patterns based on the core.
Curated OER
Visual and Number Patterns
Fourth graders develop strategies for identifying geometric and number patterns. In this mathematical patterns lesson plan, 4th graders use pattern blocks to make repeating patterns with numbers and shapes. Students then explore number...
Curated OER
Investigation - Patterns
Learners create a pattern out of pattern blocks. In this math lesson, students work with a partner to investigate the pattern they have. Within that group, learners continue to design the pattern by adding the next two pieces....

It Just Keeps Going and Going...
Students explore patterns, identify patterns, and complete a variety of patterns. They view and discuss an online video and identify the different patterns from the film, then using a hundreds grid create an original pattern using their...
Curated OER
Representing and Extending Patterns
Students explore repeating and growing patterns. In this patterns lesson, students describe patterns, explore changing patterns and match patterns. Students participate in online activities and read books that show patterns in...
Curated OER
Repeating Patterns
Learners 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.

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
Word Problem Solving Strategies
In this word problem strategy worksheet, students solve and complete 11 different problems and questions related to growing patterns. First, they identify what they know and what information is important. Then, students solve the problem...

Describing Patterns
Fourth graders investigate repeating and growing patterns. Models, graphs and words are used to describe, extend and represent patterns. Students use evidence from models and graphs to support the identification of patterns.
Curated OER
Footprints
Students explore patterns. In this patterns geometry lesson plan, students identify and extend patterns including body parts, movement, geometric shapes, noises, and footprints. Students create and share an original pattern.

What's the Best Deal?
Students explore number sense by solving consumer math problems. In this pattern identification lesson, students analyze a list of numerical and geometric patterns while predicting the future outcome. Students utilize inference skills to...
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.
