Multiple Representations of Numeric Patterning

Abstract:

This lesson is a re-engagement lesson designed for learners to revisit a problem-solving task they have already experienced. Students will activate prior knowledge of graphical representations through the ŇwhatŐs my ruleÓ number talk; compare and contrast two different learnersŐ interpretations of the growing pattern; use multiple representations to demonstrate how one of these learners would represent the numeric pattern; make connections between the different representations to more critically compare the two interpretations.
