Extending Pattern Understandings
Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.
Curated OER
Create Your Own Pattern
In this patterning worksheet, 1st graders create their own patterns. Students complete 4 self made patterns using colors and shapes in each.

Adire Eleko Cloth Glue Patterns
First graders are introduced to the art form of African Adire Eleko cloth - painted patterned textiles. They use paper, glue and paint to imitate the technique and create similar patterns on paper.

Math Worksheet: Patterns Again
For this math patterns worksheet, students see 10 math patterns with repeating geometric shapes. They choose the shape that will come next in the pattern from 3 choices.
Curated OER
Fingerprint Patterns
In this fingerprint pattern worksheet, students use lead pencils and paper to create prints of their fingers. They find their fingerprint patterns and compare them to their peers. They also identify a "mystery" print.
Curated OER
Recognizing Math Patterns
In this math worksheet students see 10 sets of math patterns. Each pattern is made up of repeating geometric shapes. Students mark the choice which would complete the pattern.
Curated OER
Find a Pattern
For this patterns worksheet, students find the next 3 numbers in the sequence of patterns. Students complete this for 9 patterns.
Curated OER
Investigation-How Many Toothpicks?
Seventh graders use toothpicks to investigate a series of designs and identify patterns. Data is organized and analyzed using tables and graphs, and students make generalizations using algebraic expressions.
Curated OER
Starfish Surprises
In this missing numbers worksheet, students write the missing numbers covered by the starfish in the patterns. Students complete 6 problems total.
Curated OER
Terrific Tessellations
Students construct tesselations that fosters their ability to create, transform, and critique their own piece of work. This allows them to become aware of repeated patterns in math, and connect these patterns to artwork.
Curated OER
Painting Package
Students use tools in a painting package to design tiles and create repeating patterns. They design a single tile using a 4 x 4 grid and experiment with changing the alignment of some of the tiles by rotating different areas.
Curated OER
Extend a Pattern
In this color blocks worksheet, young scholars explore patterns and sequences. Students determine the number of combinations that can be made before they repeat. This one-page worksheet contains 1 multi-step problem.

Multiplication As Repeated Addition
In this understanding of multiplication as a repeated addition learning exercise, students convert repeated addition facts to multiplication facts and find the products. Students solve 30 problems.
Curated OER
Tessellations
Learners form repeating patterns using tessellations. In this tessellations lesson, students identify shapes and illustrate three types of transformations. A website is included with the lesson which provides extension activities and...

Relationships Round Robin
Mathematics is all about patterns. Young mathematicians analyze geometric patterns to write algebraic expressions. They use the expressions to predict future stages of the patterns.
Curated OER
Dividing with Fractions
Use paper strips or models to relate division problems to division of fraction problems. Since the materials can be broken up, it helps them to show how they can complete repeated subtraction with fractions and not just whole numbers.

Patterning Fun
Learners practice making patterns with paint and stamps. In this arts and crafts lesson, students utilize the floor of their classroom to create a giant pattern on the floor using different colored paints and foam stamps. Learners sign...
Illustrative Mathematics
Complex number patterns
Start off with the definition of the imaginary number i, then have your class practice simplifying expressions involving powers of i and look for patterns. See how the cyclic nature of powers of i translate to sums of powers of i.

Be a Speed Reader
Young learners speed their way toward fluent reading with a hands-on consonant digraph activity. Using the numbered grid included in this resource, children roll a die and choose a word corresponding to the number they rolled. They then...
Noyce Foundation
Between the Lines
Explore linear and square dimensions by comparing areas of similar figures. A creative set of five activities designed for elementary through high school classes asks young scholars to compare areas of specific polygons. The first two...
Curated OER
Symmetry in Relief
Learners explore radial symmetry. In this 3 dimensional art and geometry lesson plan, students identify examples of radial symmetry in everyday objects. Learners create an imprint using radial symmetry on clay tiles.
Curated OER
Patterns in Dance
Third graders perform a line dance in the study of math as a pattern. They create and discuss movement solutions derived from movement exploration. They observe that patterns exist in the areas of music and dance and follow the...
Curated OER
Pattern Play
Students create their own number patterns to reinforce their understanding of the concept of patterns. They also search for the unexpected guests in each other's patterns.
Curated OER
Footprints
Students explore patterns. In this patterns geometry lesson, students identify and extend patterns including body parts, movement, geometric shapes, noises, and footprints. Students create and share an original pattern.
