20. Create your own pattern
With your partner - Design a pattern that would require a 2-3 column T-Chart to solve. You pattern must have at least 2 different shapes that are following a pattern.

21. Instructions for your pattern:
Exchange your pattern with another group. Complete the following:…
Is this an increasing or decreasing pattern?
Describe the pattern you see.
Represent it in a Table of Values (T-Chart)
Draw the next two figures.
How many squares would there be in the 10 figure? How about the 25th?

22. Create a 6 number pattern that matches the rule
The pattern increases by 5 each time.

23. Create a 6 number pattern that matches the rule
The pattern doubles each time.

24. Create a 6 number pattern that matches the rule
The pattern decreases by 8 each time.

25. Create a 6 number pattern that matches the rule
The pattern begins at 3 and increases by 11 each time.

26. How could I describe this pattern exactly?

27. MatH review 3 headed monster
You need to get into a group of three.
Everyone gets their homework out. You cannot participate in a group without complete homework.
Each person presents their solution to the problem.
Each person gives good descriptive feedback
Repeat until everyone has gone.
Using your combined brain power, come up with your best answer as a group on a piece of grid paper. You will share this solution with the class.

28. Rule: The pattern triples each time.
H.W. Task 1
Create a pattern that matches the pattern rule.
Record the first 5 numbers in the pattern.
Model the pattern.
Rule: The pattern triples each time.

29. h.w. Task 2
Create a chart (table of values) that matches the pattern rule.
Record the first 5 numbers in the pattern.
Model the pattern.
Rule: The number of large red squares increases by 1 starting at 1. The number of smaller blue squares starts at 8 and increases by 4 each time.

30. Table of Values 1 8 2 3 4 5 Figure Number Large Red Squares
Smaller Blue Squares 1 8 2 3 4 5

31. Reminder 1
When we describe a pattern we need to describe the exact pattern we see, not just the operation.
Example: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 …
The pattern increases by 2 each time … yup. Well so do an infinite amount of other patterns!
The pattern begins at 2 and increases by 2 each time  Ding Ding Ding!!

32. practice
What is the pattern for the following patterns:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
24, 21, 18, 15, 12

33. Reminder 2
When we model a pattern we need to design patterns that show the pattern not just simple counting.
Example: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ….
Example of “counting”:
Example of a “ pattern model”:

34. practice
Model the following patterns:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
24, 21, 18, 15, 12
