How Can I generalize a Pattern

1. How Can I generalize a Pattern

2. Homework Questions?

3. Can you see the pattern here? Can you find figure 1 and 5? Figure 1 Figure 4 Figure 5 Figure 2 Figure 3

4. From a pattern to a table Figure Figure Number X Y 1 2 3 4

5. From a pattern to a table X Y 1 1 Count the boxes to find the y-values! 4 2 9 3 Can you describe the 100th figure? How many blocks does it have? 4 16

6. Now its your turn (1-9) Look at the pattern in your groups Find how the pattern grows (Use color if it helps) Draw the 1st and 5th figures Turn your pattern into a table Find the 100th figure in the pattern

7. Time to Present your Work (1-10 & 1-11) • Follow the same process for the next pattern. • Take your results and place them on the sheet of construction paper you’ve been given. • Make sure you include • Clear drawings of your pattern • An explanation of your pattern • Your prediction for the 100th pattern

8. HW Topics • Graphing points • All points on a graph are called “ordered pairs” since x comes before y • Moving to the right is positive and left is negative for the x-axis • Moving up is positive and down is negative for the y-axis

9. HW Problems 1-12, 1-13, 1-14 (a, c, d), 1-15
