Hands on crosscutting concept of patterns:

Before our study of electromagnetic waves, I use this activity to remind students how to find patterns where there are not obvious repeating patterns. This skills is important across all levels of science.

Students are given three sets of items which they then observe. Through observation, students will classify their data. Once this data is classified with a chart students will evaluate patterns through the data.

A quick full class activity is completed before beginning this group activity. This models for the students the approach to finding and evaluating these patterns.

This activity aligns with Indiana Science Standard MS-PS4-1, CC.1.

What's included:

• Teacher instructions.
• Example worksheet.
• Activity worksheets (three versions).
• Pictures of example.

How is this activity useful:

• Helps introduce or practice a tricky concept.
• Simple set up.
• Hands on, group activity keeps students engaged.
• Students like finding unusual connections.

Use this engaging resource to help students learn about different examples of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish. Through fun and engaging activity such as code breaker, students will develop a better knowledge of these animal classifications.

Students will decode hidden content by using pattern recognition, working memory, and visual perception skills. These skills also help improve focus and memory. Students will be excited to reveal the hidden content, making this activity even more engaging.

Includes:

• 10 mammals, 10 birds, 9 reptiles, 6 amphibians and 10 fish.
• Answer key

Use for:

• Independent practice
• Classwork
• Review activity
• Morning work
• Early finishers
• Extension activity

No prep required, saving teachers time.
