Students complete a table to show a fitness plan pattern, finish a equation to describe the relationship, and answer questions to demonstrate their understanding of the pattern.
Students complete a table to show a fitness plan pattern, finish a rule to describe the relationship, and answer questions to demonstrate their understanding of the pattern
Students answer two questions about exercise times for an incrementing fitness programme. They identify an expression relating time exercised to the number of weeks on the programme, and explain why this pattern couldn't continue indefinitely.
Using multi-link cubes students investigate the number of faces visible in a sequence of step models, then they use this information to continue and record the pattern in a table.
Students use matchsticks to continue a triangular spatial pattern and write a rule to describe the number needed for each pattern. They then complete a table and a rule to show the relationship between the number of triangles and the number of matchsticks.
Students identify and continue the number pattern for a stack of cans and complete a graph to demonstrate the relationship between two sets of numbers.
Students complete a table showing times to boil different quantities of water. They identify the rule that relates the amount of water to boiling time and use it to answer questions.
In this task students continue a triangular shape pattern with sticks to explore the rule used in the pattern. Students then use their understanding of the pattern rule to continue the pattern without the sticks.
