Interactivate: Standard Expectation

5 items total

Organization: Virginia Standards of Learning
Grade Band: 4th Grade
Standard Goal: Patterns, Functions, and Algebra

The student will recognize, create, and extend numerical and geometric patterns, using concrete materials, number lines, symbols, tables, and words.

Patterns in Fractals	Lesson: Introduces students to the idea of finding number patterns in the generation of several different types of fractals.
Patterns in Pascal's Triangle	Lesson: Shows students that number patterns exist in the Pascal's Triangle, and reinforces student's ability to identify patterns.
Pattern Generator	Activity: Recognize patterns in a series of shapes, numbers, or letters. After determining the pattern, the student fills in the missing pieces. Three levels of difficulty are available.
Sierpinski's Carpet	Activity: Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Carpet -- a fractal made from subdividing a square into nine smaller squares and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.
Sierpinski's Triangle	Activity: Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Triangle -- a fractal made from subdividing a triangle into four smaller triangles and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.
