Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

E.g. 1. Give students two tables with patterns that are related in some way. Students should first extend each one by three more numbers. Then they should explain how the two patterns are alike and how they are different
E.g. 2. Students could make up their own pairs of patterns and challenge other students to discover how they are alike and how they are different

 The Pattern A and Pattern B tables are set beside the two exemplars and their cells interleave with them in the text layer; the figure shows both tables.
