Reasoning with Shape & Numerical Patterns!
Mrs. Moss's 4th graders started by creating the first three steps of their own patterns. Then, they swapped with a partner—challenging each other to figure out and complete the 4th and 5th images in the pattern. Such a fun way to stretch their problem-solving skills!
