These worksheets are designed to help students develop their number pattern recognition and sequencing skills. By identifying and continuing patterns using addition and subtraction rules, students will strengthen their problem-solving and skip counting skills.

How to Complete:

1. Identify the Rule: Students are presented with a sequence of numbers and must identify the rule used in each pattern. They will continue the sequence by filling in the missing numbers.
2. Apply the Rule: Students are given a starting number and a specific rule. They apply the rule repeatedly to extend the pattern.

Additional Tips:

1. Encourage students to say the pattern aloud as they complete it.
2. Provide physical number lines to assist students in visualising the number patterns.
3. Practise skip counting prior to completing the task.

Extension Ideas:

1. Create New Patterns: Ask students to develop their own patterns and challenge a partner to identify the rule and continue the sequence.
2. Increase Complexity: Introduce more advanced patterns involving 3 digit numbers or other operations, such as multiplication.
