We are now going to look at some attribute chains, each of which has a pattern. The students' job is to continue the pattern. First, students were asked to continue this chain:
Let's look at the conversation that follows.
Teacher: What pieces did you add to the pattern? Jamal: Two yellows and two blues.
Teacher: What is the pattern? Sandra: Yellow, yellow, blue, blue, yellow, yellow, blue, blue.
Teacher: Can you add more pieces to your pattern? Jamal: We could do this:
Teacher: What is your pattern? Jamal: Yellow, yellow, blue, blue, yellow, yellow, blue, blue, yellow, yellow, blue, blue.
Teacher: Can you continue the pattern? Sandra: (after looking carefully at the other pieces) No.
Teacher: Why not? Sandra: Because there are no more blue or yellow blocks left.
Teacher: Now I would like each of you to start a pattern for the other person to continue.
