Presents two practice-discovery activities to furnish computational review in a nonroutine setting. Provides a worksheet for the activities. (YP)

This document provides a listing of the revised sequence of mathematics skills to be taught in grades K-6 in the Lancaster (Pennsylvania) School District. For each level the individual skills are grouped into categories, listed in sequence, and cross-referenced to specific pages in three mathematics textbook series. The categories of skills relate…

Described are patterns in Pascal's triangle which are obtained when the entries are reduced modulo a prime number. (MM)

Mathematical worksheets are presented for use in the elementary school classroom. The sheets deal with arithmetic and number patterns, one being for the primary grades, the other for grades 4 to 8. (RS)

Describes how the human body can be used to make sense of various number patterns and relationships. (YDS)

Patterns in modular arithmetic are discussed: (1) multiplication tables, and (2) diagrams obtained by joining points on the circumference of a circle. (MM)

Suggested activities involving number patterns, using the idea of a number machine." (MM)

Discusses the geometrical array of the keys on a calculator that can be turned into a problem-solving, problem-posing situation for the upper elementary or middle school classroom. Provides figures showing the arrays, including rows, diagonals, crosses, rhombi, angles, and squares. Lists seven references. (YP)

Postulated here is the notion that the exploration of number patterns with calculators is a valuable mathematical learning activity that should be commenced in the primary grades. Various activities are presented that make use of the constant function key, which is available on many of the inexpensive four-function calculators. (JJK)
