It was fun getting started on patterns with you all last class. The following items are our initial objectives:
1. Identify a repeating pattern
2. Sketch additional figures in a repeating pattern.
3. Create a table to collect data from patterns.
4. Plot data.
5. Create an expression that best describes the pattern.
6. Use the expression to determine additional information.
Language objectives included:
1. Being able to describe a pattern using complete sentences.
2. Being able to describe your thought processes when solving a problem.
As you get settled in today, please do the following:
From the Boss: Please show me your information in as many different ways as possible. I have all sorts of different clients and each one likes to see information in different ways. Thanks!

As you get settled in today, please do the following:
- Sketch figures 4 and 5 and then figure 0.
- How many tiles would be used in figure 13? Sketch.
- How many tiles would be used in figure 26?
4. Create a table that has your data. Please list figures 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 13, 26 and for any "n".
5. Graph the data.
6. Using your expression for n, determine how many tiles would be used for figure 71.
7. If you had 122 tiles, what figure would you be on?
Job Announcement!
Super Banquets has heard about the wonderful TAIMUN event that takes place at your school and want to offer you the opportunity to work for our company. From small parties to large galas involving hundreds of people, we plan events. You have been highly recommended yet we would like for you to complete our standard planning questions so that we have a record of your amazing abilities (you know, just getting the paper-work done).
Our two basic table designs are described below:
The Standard (sits six people comfortably and extra tables can be added on the short side)
|
Close & Comfy (sits three along a side of an equilateral triangle. Extra tables added to any end.
|
The task: Come up with a way for us to quickly determine the number of tables needed for an event using either table set-up.
From the Boss: Please show me your information in as many different ways as possible. I have all sorts of different clients and each one likes to see information in different ways. Thanks!
