Math Patterns for Teachers

This document is the teacher guide for Unit 1: Number Patterns of a 6th grade mathematics textbook. It provides background information on the key concepts to be covered, including patterns, variables, equations, and number sense. The unit will have students build on prior knowledge of number patterns involving one operation and explore patterns with two operations. Students will use patterns to represent situations and solve problems. They will also learn to recognize the divisibility of numbers, which develops number sense. The overall goals are for students to describe, represent and work with growing and shrinking patterns using variables and equations.

Students will build on previous experience with number patterns
involving one operation to gain experience in patterns with two
operations. They will use recursive patterns that create a new term
based on the value of a previous term.
Number patterns are used to find ways to recognize the divisibility
of a given number by a given factor.

A strong number sense skill is significant for more advanced work with
solving equations and simplifying algebraic expressions. Recognizing
the divisibility of a number is one way of developing this skill.

REACHING ALL LEARNERS

Early Finishers
Have students use their Input/Output machine from Explore.
They predict what happens to the output numbers if they
reverse the order of operations and numbers in the
Input/Output machine. Students find the outputs to check
their prediction.

Common Misconceptions
➤ Students do not know how to identify a pattern rule for
a table of values.
How to Help: Have students practise with patterns that
use multiplication, then addition or subtraction. Students
calculate the differences of consecutive terms in the output
column. These differences should be constant. This constant
is the number each input is multiplied by. Students can then
multiply each input number by this constant and compare the
product with the output. This difference is the number that is
added or subtracted in the second part of the machine.

still an even number, so the output is always even.) (No; I counted on by 3s in the output column,
• Which input number has an output of 20? beginning at 13: 16, 19, 22, 25, …. Since I did not

16, 18, 20, and 22. So, an input of 7 has an output (Since we multiply by 3 and subtract 2, each output is 1
of 20.) more than a multiple of 3. But 24 is a multiple of 3,
so it cannot be an output number in this pattern.)

Making Connections
A coded message is used to keep information from everyone
except those to whom it is sent. Rather than just replacing each
letter of the message with a number, the encoder will use one or
two operations on these numbers to make the code harder to
determine. Students could investigate these types of codes and
how they relate to the security of countries and businesses.

b) The outputs from the machine in part b are 5 greater
than the outputs from the machine in part a.
c) There is only one output number for each input number.
When you multiply a given number by a certain number
there can only be one answer. The same is true for addition.
Therefore, you can only get one output number for each
input number. 8

might identify the output numbers as 1 more

in order. I subtract each output number from the number
above it to see if the differences are equal. If they are, then
this number is what I multiply each input by. I multiply an
input number by this factor and decide if any number needs
to be added or subtracted to get the output number. I check
these numbers and operations with other inputs and outputs.

Have students find different rules for the patterns in Practice.
For example, the pattern rule in question 3c can be written
different ways.

Common Misconceptions
➤ Students have difficulty identifying recursive patterns
when the preceding term is multiplied by a constant
before another constant is added.
How to Help: Have students generate simple patterns first.
Begin at 1, multiply each term by 2, then add 1 to generate
1, 3, 7, 15, 31, …. Then have students begin at 1, multiply
each term by 2, then add 2 to generate 1, 4, 10, 22, ….
Continue with similar patterns, multiplying, then adding or
subtracting small numbers each time.

ESL Strategies
Students may have difficulty writing pattern rules. Allow them
to describe the rules orally or visually to you or to another
student during Practice exercises. Help students relate the
correct word to the operation they have said or drawn. Have
students highlight this in a notebook or journal that students
can use during assessments.

Reflect on the Unit


I have used patterns from Input/Output machines. In these
patterns, the output is related to the input. These patterns could
be described using the Input/Output machine as the pattern rule,
or the input and the output could each be described by a recursive
pattern rule. I used patterns to find divisibility rules for the numbers
from 2 to 9. I also used patterns to solve simple equations with one
variable and more complex equations with 2 or more variables.

what they have learned.
Student Self-Assessment Note students’ perception of their own progress. This may take the form of an oral or written
comment, or self-rating.
Comments Analyse the pattern of achievement to identify strengths and needs. In some cases, specific
actions may be planned to support the learner.

Master 1.5 To Parents and Adults at Home …

Your child's class is starting a mathematics unit on number patterns. Understanding


and producing patterns are important skills that help develop your child's number
sense and algebraic reasoning skills.

Patterns occur in nature, art, and many everyday activities. Patterns can be
described using numbers, words, models, and formulas.

In this unit, your child will:


• Write a pattern rule for a number pattern.
• Identify, extend, and create patterns.
• Use patterns to pose and solve problems.
• Use patterns to explore divisibility rules.
• Find the value of a missing term or factor.
• Use patterns to explore integers.

Patterns occur in many forms. Help your child see the patterns that occur in his or her
everyday life — in pictures, numbers, or sequences of performing steps.
