Increasing patterns!

This week in math we are learning all about increasing patterns. First the students created their own increasing patterns using blocks. Here are some pictures:

 

 

Then we worked on creating pattern rules for our patterns using numbers. Here is an example of an increasing number pattern and pattern rule:

                                26,30,34,38,42    Pattern rule: start at 26. Increase by 4.

Have your child complete this pattern tell you the pattern rule:

                                50,55,60,65,70,_____,_______,_____ Pattern rule:

Next week we will be working on decreasing number patterns!
