Direct linkBjörklund, Camilla; Pramling, Niklas – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2014
In this empirical study, we investigate an early childhood education activity in mathematics on the concept of "pattern". The children participating in the study attend an intermediate form of schooling in Sweden called "the preschool class for six-year-olds", intended to facilitate their transition from preschool to school.…

Peer reviewedHowden, Hilde – Arithmetic Teacher, 1989
What is number sense, why it is important, how it is taught, and how it is measured are each discussed. Examples with concrete materials, calculators, and pattern recognition are included. (MNS)

Peer reviewedBidwell, James K. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1987
Provided are follow-up activities for having students explore the concept of line symmetry. Using a mirror to move a pattern; finding patterns with one, two, or four lines of symmetry; finding asymmetrical patterns; deciding if patterns are different; and solving the problem of finding all patterns possible are discussed. (MNS)

Peer reviewedThompson, Alba G. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1985
The problem-solving strategy "look for a pattern" is explored. The staircase problem and the region problem are discussed in detail, with varying solution procedures, and three other problem activities are outlined. (MNS)

Hill, Jane, M., Ed. – 1987
The articles in this collection of readings come principally from the last ten years of the "Arithmetic Teacher." The emphasis is on teaching mathematics in grades K-6, although some articles may include teaching ideas and activities for grades seven and eight. Articles on measurement geometry are not included; the focus is on the development of…
