Leading Math Success Teachers who differentiate instruction focus on their role as coach or mentor. Carol Ann Tomlinson, 2001

Introducing Pattern Blocks

Virtual Pattern Blocks

Developing Understanding If a green triangle represents ½ then what is the value of the red trapezoid? If the green triangle represents 2 then what is the value of a yellow hexagon plus a blue parallelogram? How many different ways can you use pattern blocks to determine 1/2 + 1/6?

Developing Understanding Working with partners use the pattern blocks to solve this fraction puzzle. The fractions refer to the area of each shape: Build an equilateral triangle that is 1/3 green, 1/3 blue, and 1/3 red.

Reflection Give One Get One Describe another activity using pattern blocks in a math lesson

Next Steps Try one of the activities or explore one of the websites from the LMS manipulative sheet Use the Word Wall (p. 22–26, Think Literacy: Mathematics)

Leading Math Success “The key to the successful use of manipulatives lies in the bridge - which must be built by the teacher - between the artifact and the underlying mathematical concepts.”
