About This Lesson
This is a resource I created for 6th Grade students. They design and stick down their own pattern made out of matchsticks; from which they create and begin to use an nth term. This can be extended to look at graphs and other parts of sequences etc...It is
A very nice idea for a lesson on sequences and nth term rules. I especially like the idea that pupils get to make patterns with match sticks by glueing them down and trying to figure out the rule. This could be done in pairs or groups and could take a lesson to do.
