# 5.PAR.6: Numerical Pattern Rules

Solve relevant problems by creating and analyzing numerical patterns using the given rule(s).

- Subject: Mathematics
- Appears in: Grade 5, https://georgiahomeroom.org/standards/math/grade-5.md

## Expectations

- **5.PAR.6.1**: Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Identify apparent relationships between corresponding terms by completing a table.
- **5.PAR.6.2**: Represent problems by plotting ordered pairs and explain coordinate values of points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane.

## Georgia Milestones coverage

- Mathematics Grade 5 (EOG). Patterning & Algebraic Reasoning. Solve relevant problems by creating and analyzing numerical patterns using the given rule(s). (about 10% of the test; 6 points)

## What mastery looks like

Georgia's Achievement Level Descriptors. The levels are cumulative: each includes the ones before it. Proficient is on grade level.

- **Developing**: Create two numerical patterns using two given rules. Plot ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane or identify the coordinates of a point in the first quadrant.
- **Proficient**: Identify the relationships between corresponding terms of two numerical patterns in tables. Explain the coordinate values of points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane in the context of relevant problems.
- **Distinguished**: Solve relevant problems by creating and analyzing numerical patterns by using two given rules and plotting them in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane.

## The same standard across grades

- Kindergarten, K.PAR.6: Explain, extend, and create repeating patterns with a repetition, not exceeding 4 and describe patterns involving the passage of time. https://georgiahomeroom.org/standards/code/K.PAR.6.md
- **Grade 5, 5.PAR.6 (this standard)**: Solve relevant problems by creating and analyzing numerical patterns using the given rule(s).
- Grade 6, 6.PAR.6: Identify, write, evaluate, and interpret numerical and algebraic expressions as mathematical models to explain relevant situations. https://georgiahomeroom.org/standards/code/6.PAR.6.md
