Investigating Number Patterns

In Numeracy recently P6/7M have been investigating number patterns. We have been investigating the rules for square, triangular and cubed numbers and using this to then continue the sequence.

We also looked at Pascals Triangle and worked out the rule for continuing it. In the pattern we were also able to spot triangular numbers, odds and it was interesting to see the patterns made when we identified multiples of 3, 5 and 7.

The pictures below show us working together to investigate cubed numbers.
