  1. What Comes Next? Shirley MacKinnon January 14, 2010

  2. Focus Questions • Do patterns repeat ideas? • How can patterns be extended? • How can patterns be produced using different attributes? (ie. manipulatives, colors, numbers, words)

  3. Buffalo Public Schools Dr. George E. Blackman School of Excellence #54

  4. Grade level/Ability of Students • Kindergarten Inclusion Class • 18 students: 11 boys and 7 girls • 5 students receive special education services of more than speech (ie. Consultant services) • 2 students only receive speech and language services

  5. Grade level/Ability of Students • 6 students identified :at risk” based on their DIEBELS score • Age range: 4-6 years • Students retained: 3

  6. Time Frame • Planning: 4-5 hours due to pre-cutting of shapes • Implementation: three 30 minute lessons • Assessment (per student) • 3 minutes (pre-test) • 5 minutes (post-test)

  7. Objectives • The student will recognize , copy and produce an ABAB and AABB pattern independently. • The student will extend an ABAB and AABB pattern at least 5 times independently.

  8. Essential Questions • What is a pattern? • How are patterns a part of our lives? • (How does the action of building a sequence help to understand a repeating pattern?

  9. Enduring Understanding Patterns help predict what comes next.

  10. Student’s Tasks • Follow a one step direction. • Manipulate a glue stick independently. • Focus and remain on task. • Ask for assistance if needed?

  11. Developing Student Work Growing and Evolving

  12. Developing Student Work

  13. It is evident that this student is unclear as to what an ABAB or AABB is. This student was unable to recognize, copy, produce or extend an ABAB or an AABB pattern independently. This student received a score of: 4/12

  14. Proficient Student Work Well Advanced or Competent

  15. This student was able to independently complete an ABAB pattern snake only. This student was able to extend the ABAB pattern 3 times independently. This student received a score of: 4/6 (Proficient)

  16. This student has a clear understanding of an ABAB pattern. This student is able to recognize, copy, produce and extend an ABAB pattern independently. This student however is unclear of what an AABB pattern is and is unable to recognize, copy, produce and extend an AABB pattern. This student receives a score of: 8/12

  17. Distinguished Student Work Excellence or Advanced Knowledge

  18. This student clearly has an understanding of an ABAB and an AABB pattern. They are able to recognize, copy, produce and extend an ABAB and an AABB pattern independently. This student received a score of: 12/12

  19. This student was able to independently complete an AABB pattern snake. The student was able to extend the pattern at least 5 times independently. This student received a score of: 6/6 (Distinguished)

  20. New York State Core Curriculum or Standards MST Science Process Skills Based on Standard 3 Grade Level: Kindergarten Content Strand: Algebra Band: Students will recognize, use and represent algebraically patterns, relations, and functions

  21. Assessments • Diagnostic Assessment: Pre-Post test taken 1:1 with the instructor and evaluated using the patterning Rubric. • Summative Assessment: Final product- Pattern Snakes • Formative Assessment: Two pattern trains (ABAB/AABB) produced.

  22. Modification Table

  23. Reflections This learning experience was created to introduce students to different types of patterns. Most of the students did well with the ABAB patterns. Many accelerated students produced both patterns independently.

  24. Reflections • It was clear that the more practice, modeling and visual cues given the students were more successful, especially the students with developmental disabilities. • Many more activities involving patterns can be developed to extend throughout the school day.
