This worksheet will support your students to identify and continue number patterns as a result of addition and subtraction. It has been created as part of our Year 3 Number Patterns unit plan. Students will need two 6-sided dice each for this activity.
Follow and create algorithms involving a sequence of steps and decisions to investigate numbers; describe any emerging patterns
Describe, continue, and create number patterns resulting from performing addition or subtraction
Describe, continue, and create number patterns resulting from performing addition or subtraction
Use a function machine and the inverse machine as a model to apply mathematical rules to numbers or shapes
Uses appropriate terminology to describe, and symbols to represent, mathematical ideas
Selects and uses appropriate mental or written strategies, or technology, to solve problems
Checks the accuracy of a statement and explains the reasoning used
Generalises properties of odd and even numbers, generates number patterns, and completes simple number sentences by calculating missing values
Selects and uses mental and written strategies for addition and subtraction involving 2- and 3-digit numbers
Completes number sentences involving addition and subtraction by finding missing values
Represents and uses the structure of multiplicative relations to 10 × 10 to solve problems
Completes number sentences involving multiplication and division by finding missing values
Students use 3 dice and modify the activity to create three-digit numbers for the patterns.
