Introduce elementary students to the concept of functions by investigating growing patterns. Visual patterns formed with manipulatives are especially effective for elementary students and allow them to concretely build understanding as they first reproduce, then extend the pattern to the next couple of stages.

This lesson has four different activities where students practice identifying the characteristics of two-dimensional shapes by using pattern blocks.  These practice activities should be used to supplement a mathematics curriculum, not be the lessons alone to teach shape identification. They can also be used as a math intervention, center time, or sent home. Attached to the lesson is a print out of paper pattern blocks if actual blocks are not available. Also attached is an activity page for counting and identifying shapes.
