Number Pattern Relationships

PROCEDURAL

Mathematics›Algebra|Ages 10—11|ID: mt_fxPtngwUfz

Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules; identify relationships between corresponding terms; form ordered pairs and graph them on a coordinate plane

Mastery Evidence

Generate sequences starting at 0 with rules 'add 3' and 'add 6'; observe terms in one are twice the other
Form ordered pairs from corresponding terms and plot them on a coordinate grid
Explain informally why the relationship between the two sequences holds

Assessment Prompt

“Can [child] follow two number patterns at once — for example, "add 2" and "add 4" — pair up the matching terms, and plot those pairs as points on a graph?”
