Line Plots
You can't see patterns in a jumble of numbers ... so organize them! Learners take a set of data and use a line plot to organize the numbers. From the line plot, they find minimum, maximum, mean, and make other conclusions about the data.

Integer Solutions
Experiment with integer relationships. Young scholars consider integers that have a sum of 10. They begin with two integers, then three, four, and more. As they consider each situation, they discover patterns in the possible solutions.

Multiplying by 10
Multiplying by 10 is simple, but do your scholars know the trick? They look at four examples; if you haven't learned this yet, see if they notice a pattern in these answers. They multiply 70 numbers by 10. Most are two-digit, but a few...

Types of Variations
Scholars determine how two quantities vary with respect to each other. They complete a fill-in-the-blank activity by stating whether the entities vary directly, inversely, or jointly, create equations that match different variations, and...

Getting in Shape Again
Students create rocket shapes out of pattern blocks. They draw a picture of a rocket, build a pattern block rocket following simple directions, and complete a graph of the shapes used.
Curated OER
Patterns
Students extend, generalize, recognize, and write a variety of patterns using an AppleWorks template and the Inspiration or Kidspiration educational software. This technology-based math lesson is intended for the early elementary classroom.
Curated OER
Investigation - Patterns
Students 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, students continue to design the pattern by adding the next two pieces....

Put Patterns to Work for You!
For this patterns worksheet, students complete multiplication charts and division problems to solve pattern problems. Students complete 11 problems total.
Curated OER
In and Out Function Problems
Third graders solve In and Out function problems. They analyze a chart and discuss the steps to solving the functions, and discuss the patterns and complete the charts. Students then create a book of repeating patterns using magazines,...
