Finding Missing Elements in Patterns Using Tables

The video tutorial explains how to find missing elements in growing patterns using tables and number lines. It covers the importance of understanding steps and rules, common mistakes, and advanced techniques for solving patterns. The tutorial emphasizes using tables for organization and verification of pattern rules, and demonstrates how number lines can aid in visualizing pattern growth. The lesson concludes with verifying pattern rules and identifying unique features within patterns.

What is the rule used to find the 9th number in the sequence 3, 8, 13, 18?

• Add 2 each time

• Add 3 each time

• Add 5 each time

• Multiply by 2 each time

What should you consider when identifying a pattern?
