Peer reviewedAviv, Cherie Adler – Mathematics Teacher, 1979
These worksheets deal with sums of numbers. Students are asked to find the relationship between the last number in the series, the number of addends, and the sum. (MP)

Direct linkCwikla, Julie; Patterson, Marcelle Dessommes – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2006
This article describes an innovative lesson that uses the biography "Barbara McClintock: Alone in her Field" (Heiligman, 1994) to integrate genetics, literature, and mathematics as a context for students to investigate patterns on Indian corn. This two-day lesson requires students to estimate, collect data, identify and describe patterns,…

Peer reviewedAndrews, Paul – Mathematics in School, 1990
Discussed are ways in which students can generalize both quadratic or cubic situations. Generalizations are produced using the factor method, repeated linear generalizations, means of the mean, and through the use of differences. (KR)
