Data Tables

What: Information organized in rows and columns
Why: Makes data easy to read and analyze
How does it help: Develops organizational thinking

Geometric patterns form the foundation of many mathematical principles and can be observed in various forms:


  • Regular polygons and their properties
  • Tessellations and surface coverings
  • Symmetry in natural and man-made objects
  • Fractal patterns and self-similarity
Geometric Pattern Example

Value Charts

What: Tables showing place values of numbers
Why: Helps understand number structure
How does it help: Strengthens place value understanding

There are several types of symmetry in mathematics:


  • Reflection symmetry (flip)
  • Rotational symmetry (turn)
  • Translational symmetry (slide)
  • Point symmetry
Symmetry Examples

NNumber Patterns

What: Tables revealing numerical sequences
Why: Develops pattern recognition
How does it help: Enhances mathematical thinking

Tessellations can be created using:


  • Regular polygons
  • Irregular shapes
  • Transformed shapes
  • Combined patterns
Tessellation Examples

Solution Tables

What: Organized arrays of results (i.e. multiplication)
Why: Speeds up calculations
How does it help: Builds computational fluency
