Goal: Think like a mathematician! Looking for repetition in the way you build, then generalize the regularity.

Are you looking for effective and efficient ways to address students’ unfinished learning? In this 90-minute webinar, we will share our current thinking on how to leverage reasoning routines to assess and advance underdeveloped math concepts from the previous year. We will discuss how students’ capacities to reason quantitatively and think structurally hold the keys to building new mathematical understandings and connections. We will focus on critical concepts in middle school mathematics: ratio and proportional relationships, algebratizing arithmetic, rational number concepts, geometric relationships, and/or functions. Join us to explore this building-on-strengths approach to accelerating unfinished learning.

I used this task after doing a linear pattern. This more challenging quadratic growth pattern was more interesting and engaging as students did not immediately go to a table and equation. Seven students each shared a different generalization that they came up with while drawing with repetition.
Students showed their generalizations on a projection on a white board. However, I wasn’t able to keep all of the students’ work up at the same time. I decided to have groups create posters showing their generalizations, instructing them to clearly show the connection between their drawings and expression. I then had groups explain another groups’ poster to the class.
