Coloring Multiples Exploration Questions
Pascal's Triangle is very interesting from a number pattern point of
view.
- Look at your copy of
Pascal's Triangle. Look at the rows, and try to figure out
the pattern. How is each number related to the others in the
triangle? Once you have the idea, fill in the next four rows
of the triangle.
- Color all of the odd numbers one color and all of the even numbers
another on your copy of Pascal's Triangle. What do you notice about
the pattern? Have you seen it before?
- Use the Coloring Multiples Activity to
explore other patterns. Try at least three different multiples.
Do you see a general pattern? Can you describe how each number you try
relates to the pattern for that number?
