Patterns and relationships resources

Students use cubes to construct part of a spatial pattern and answer questions on how to continue it.

This task requires students to interpret the relationship between noise level and time as illustrated by various points on a graph.

Students interpret a graph about getting to school, writing descriptions about each students journey and making statements comparing the journeys.

Students respond to questions about the relationship between diagonals, triangles and polygons; then write a rule to describe 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.

Students interpret distance-time graphs for a number of scenarios.

In this task students build the next two models of a spatial sequential pattern and then use their results to predict subsequent patterns and give general rules for these in words and in equations.
