 Algebra Rubric Term 3 2021                                                    Name: Tessa Webb.


Criteria

Level 2 (5ii)

Early Level 3

Level 3

Level 4

Algebraic patterns

Explain the rule for a sequential pattern. 

Describe the rules for number patterns

Use tables and graphs to describe rules number patterns

Find rules and formulas for number patterns 


My Algebra goals: 


Goal

Success Criteria (This is what it will look like when I get there)

I need to explain what the next term of a spatial pattern will be. Eg 

To achieve this goal I can say which is the next number, shape or character in the pattern or I know what the next number or shape will be in the next part of the sequence. Eg the next creature is a butterfly. The next pattern will have four triangles.etc. 

I can describe what must happen for the next pattern. For example 

To achieve this goal I can say what is happening in the patterns eg You add two matches each time to make the next pattern in the sequence. It is going up by 2 each time starting from 3.   

I need a strategy to continue a pattern without drawing or building every one.

To achieve this goal I will have a strategy such as a table I can use to work out how many matchsticks there will be needed to make 10 triangles. 


Triangles

1

2

3

4

5

Matches

3

5

7

9

11


Each time the difference gets bigger by one so I can work out the 10th pattern without building it.

I need to be able to use a formula to work out the 100th term in a spatial or number pattern

To achieve this goal, I can use letters to represent the term in a sequence that I get from looking at a table and building a formula.  


I notice if I double the number of triangles and add 1, I get the number of matches needed so m = double p plus 1. Eg 3 x 2 = 6 plus 1 = 7. 



Goal Setting in Algebra


My goal in algebra is to  Find a formula. 


Algebra Reflection


Using the two tests, think about your strengths and which gaps you have sorted out. (goals you have achieved). To be completed at the end of the 3 weeks. 


Talk to someone about:


  • How you achieved them (you could talk about how quickly you achieve them, some of the learning qualities that helped you achieve them.) 

  • What strategies you now have to help you with algebraic problems. (use your rubric)

  • What worked well for your learning (what you did or what your teachers did)

  • What could have been better (what could you have done better? or what could your teachers have done better?)


Finally post on your Blog 


Progress and what could have been better.


My first test I did I thought was a bit hard thing ( to come back to from when you have just been on holiday. ) 

It took me a while to process it back into my brain. But I got most of the question right I got 4/6 I just got 2 questions wrong.

On my second test I got 3/6 which was a bit bad from last time but at least I got some right instead of non at all.

But the next time we do this test I’ll know a little bit more than I did the last two times.


Algebra pattern and Relationships.

 Algebra Pattern and Relationships PreTest    Name:Tessa 

  1. Garden Creatures - What is the next creature in the pattern above? Explain how you know. Butterfly because the pattern goes like butterfly, snail then ladybug. It stops at ladybug so it goes back to the start.

  2. Shaping up Colours  - What shape goes on number 14 in this pattern? What colour will it be? How do you know?

____blue circle I just went along with the pattern.

  1. Matchstick Moves - Can you keep the pattern above going? How many triangles and matches will be in the next pattern? How do you know?      Triangles 4____                  Matches _24____


  1. Growing Numbers.             7, 13, 19, 25 …             What would the seventh number be in the pattern? How do you know?

43__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


5. Folding Fractions - Chris makes a table below to show the patterns for the number of folds in each shape. What would Chris write for the parts and fraction in 4 and 5 folds?


6.  Fencing - Here are some lengths of fence. How many matches will there be in Length 10? Show below how you worked it out.
