Students draw in the next two shapes in a spatial pattern, complete a table and rules about the pattern, then calculate the number of triangles in the 8th shape.
Students interpret a graph of the Hare's Progress to answer questions about rate, rest, and reading sections of the graph. They also identify the constant motion of the tortoise and explain the result of the race.
This practical task requires students to use straws to build up a linear pattern. Students then predict the number of straws needed for successive patterns and explain their rule.
