Teaching guide
Follow and create step-by-step algorithms that use addition or multiplication to generate sets of numbers, then describe the patterns that appear.
Identify the repeating unit or the rule (add 3, double), extend it, and describe it in words. Build growing patterns with materials.
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Noticing only the first step of a rule, or continuing by appearance rather than the underlying rule.
