tables Patterns & Function Machine Worksheets
These tables-based pattern and function machine worksheets help students organize and analyze mathematical relationships in a structured format. The table format makes it easier to identify patterns, determine rules, and understand input-output relationships across various operations and complexity levels.
About these worksheets
These worksheets help students identify and describe pattern rules. Activities include spotting attributes in number patterns, creating patterns from given rules, writing equations from function machine data, and determining whether patterns use addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division. Worksheets also include matching patterns and using tables to continue rules. Spanning fourth and fifth grade standards.
About these worksheets
Students practice continuing number patterns by identifying the rule and predicting what comes next. Worksheets include patterns that increase or decrease by a constant amount, finding missing numbers in sequences, choosing the correct pattern from multiple options, and using a 100 chart to spot patterns. Aligned with fourth grade.
Continuing Patterns (+ - )
- Figure out the rule in a number pattern that goes up or down by the same amount each step.
- Choose the next number that correctly continues an addition or subtraction pattern.
- Spot when a number does not fit the pattern and pick the option that does.
