Number Patterns and Sequences
Students will identify and describe simple number patterns and sequences, finding the next few terms.
Key Questions
- How can we identify the rule or pattern in a given sequence of numbers?
- What are the next terms in a sequence if we know its pattern?
- How can we describe a number pattern using words or simple rules?

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
