introduction to growth patterns grade 65

This resource introduces the concept of growth patterns, explaining how they are sequences of numbers or shapes that change according to specific, predictable rules. It differentiates between linear growth (adding the same amount each time) and non-linear growth (multiplying or adding a changing amount). The resource provides examples and guides for identifying these rules by comparing changes between numbers. It includes practice and challenge zones for learners to apply what they've learned, and highlights famous patterns like the Fibonacci sequence, emphasizing their presence in nature and everyday life. The content encourages students to create their own patterns and explore real-life scenarios to reinforce understanding of growth patterns.
