Peer reviewedTrotter, Terrel, Jr.; Myers, Mark D. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1980
An activity is presented which provides a novel approach to number patterns, experience in following an unusual algorithmic procedure, and practice in systematic search techniques and basic facts. (MK)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics, Mathematics Curriculum
Peer reviewedMaletsky, Evan M., Ed.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1979
Mathematical activities suitable for reproduction as worksheets are suggested. These activities are adaptations of the classic tower puzzle and are intended to help students discover patterns, make generalizations, and use the strategy of solving simpler problems in order to solve a more difficult one. (MK)
