In this activity, students will visit the GoNoodle website and learn a catchy tune about patterns. Students will then demonstrate their knowledge of patterns by collaboratively creating and designing their own pattern and tune in a Flipgrid post.
This activity was created as a result of the Arts COS Resource Development Summit.
In this learning activity, students will discover how spider webs are made by watching a short video. Students will compare photographs of spider webs and look for patterns. Finally, students will create a 3-dimensional patterned spider web using geometric shapes and lines.
This activity is an excellent reinforcement activity for students to explore patterns using shapes, letters, and numbers. The activity can be used individually or in groups of 2 or 3 students.
This learning activity was created as a result of the Girls Engaged in Math and Science University, GEMS-U Project.
Identify the patterns using addition, subtraction, and geometry to solve the puzzle and crack Hacker's code in this Cyberchase game.
This game from Odd Squad will help children with counting and cardinal numbers (identifying and counting patterns in 1s, 2s, 5s, and 10s).
In this video segment from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad observes the movement of Hacker’s robotic frog. The frog has been programmed to make a certain number of hops depending on the button that is pushed. The CyberSquad figured out the original input/output pattern but now the frog is larger, and there is a new pattern they must figure out in order to control the frog.
In this video segment adapted from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad observes the movement of Hacker’s robotic frog. The frog has been programmed to make a certain number of hops depending on the button that is pushed. The CyberSquad must figure out the relationship between the numbers on the buttons and the number of hops the frog makes.
How can you describe the pattern made by a growing triangular shape? This interactive exercise focuses on using what you know about pattern recognition and completing a table so you have data you can use to graph the coordinates on a plane to make predictions about the ongoing pattern.
In this interactive lesson, students will try to find the numerical pattern to describe what happens when Dan runs stairs. This interactive lesson focuses on using what you know about pattern recognition and using data to write expressions in order for you to figure out the equation to model the situation given.
In this interactive activity, students will be led through steps to predict geometric patterns. There are teaching activities as well as practice activities available. A handout that reviews the steps taught during the activity can be printed. After utilizing this resource, the students can complete the short quiz to assess their understanding.
In this Cyberchase lesson plan, students explore different repeating patterns to predict when two or more events will occur at the same time. In the video segment, the CyberSquad examines patterns and beats in music. Students are encouraged to create patterns and draw conclusions. In doing so, they learn to predict the least common factor of up to three numbers.
