Math is Finding Patterns
Name Period
Objectives / Objetivos
Content Objective: I can find patterns and pattern rules, use them to make generalizations, and check my solutions with a table of values.
Language Objective: I can describe a pattern using the words pattern rule, generalization, and 'each number is ___ more than the one before it.'
Key Idea / Idea clave
Math Practices: Patterns & Generalizations. 1. Organize observations into a table of values. 2. Identify the constant change or rule connecting inputs to outputs. 3. Write a general rule or expression to predict future terms

- Each penny has a value of $0.01. What is the value of 100 pennies?
- $1.00
- $0.10
- $10.00
- $100.00
- Player A had 18 points before making 10 two-pointers in a row. How many points does Player A have after the streak?
- 38
- 28
- 20
- 48
- Akela's jar totals $53.50. Why can the number of pennies only be a multiple of 5?
- Because the total's cents end in 0, and only pennies make amounts that aren't multiples of 5 cents
- Because pennies always come in rolls of 5
- Because there are exactly 5 kinds of coins in the jar
- Because $53.50 is divisible by 5
- If both players kept their streaks going, after how many MORE shots would Player B tie Player A?
- 2 more shots
- 1 more shot
- They can never tie
- 10 more shots
