Maletsky, 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.

Trojan, Arthur; Zastrocky, Mike – 1974
This module uses concepts of fingerprinting to illustrate and apply selected mathematical ideas. Specifically, students participate in activities that require pattern recognition, measuring using mm and cm, and identification of similar patterns. Inking of students' prints is done. Teaching suggestions are provided. (MK)
