Numerical Patterns

This document provides parents with an overview of their child's upcoming math unit on numerical patterns. The unit will focus on generating two numerical patterns using two given rules, identifying relationships between corresponding terms, and graphing the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. Students will create related sequences in data tables and plot points to create line graphs representing the patterns. They will also determine relationships between x and y values in ordered pairs. The unit aims to help students solve real-world problems using patterns.

Dear Parents,

We will begin our next unit of study in math soon. The information below will serve as an overview of
the unit as you work to support your child at home. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact
me. I appreciate your on-going support.
Sincerely,
Your Childs Teacher

Unit Name:
Numerical Patterns
Common Core State Standards:
5.OA.3 Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Identify apparent relationships between
corresponding terms. Form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and
graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. For example, given the rule "Add 3" and the starting
number 0, and given the rule "Add 6" and the starting number 0, generate terms in the resulting
sequences, and observe that the terms in one sequence are twice the corresponding terms in the other
sequence. Explain informally why this is so.

Essential Vocabulary:

related sequence
line graph
data table
x-axis
y-axis
ordered pair

Unit Overview:
This standard builds on students work from fourth grade, where students generate numerical patterns
when they are given one rule. In fifth grade, students are given two rules and generate two numerical
patterns. The graphs that are created should be line graphs to represent the pattern.

Strategies/Skills:
Students will create related sequences in data tables and plot points to create line graphs. Students will
determine the relationship between x and y in an ordered pair in a data table. (Ex: x = y + 2 shows that
each x is two more than the y in the pattern. If x is 9, y is 7). Students will also compare line graphs.
Students are required to solve real-world problems using patterns to plan a Spring Carnival.
