This cluster includes the following benchmarks.

Visit the specific benchmark webpage to find related instructional resources.

MAFS.5.OA.2.3 : 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.

Cluster Resources

Vetted resources educators can use to teach the concepts and skills in this topic.

Formative Assessments

Choo Choo Trains Company: Students are asked to fill in missing values in a table of numerical patterns and describe relationships between corresponding terms.
Comic Books: Students are asked to complete one of two number patterns, write ordered pairs composed of corresponding terms, graph the ordered pairs, and identify a relationship between corresponding terms of the patterns.
Generating Two Patterns: Students are given two rules and are asked to generate patterns.
Exploring Related Patterns: Students are asked to complete one of two number patterns, write ordered pairs composed of corresponding terms, graph the ordered pairs, and identify a relationship between corresponding terms of the patterns.

Lesson Plan

Cool School: In this lesson, students will take an imaginary trip to my lake house. They will solve a variety of real life word problems. Once at the lake they will experience many activities where they will need number sense. For the assessment, students will record and analyze data in order to determine who the best angler was at "Cool School."
