Sequence Lab: Number and Shape Sequences, Find the Rule and the Error
Children go beyond adding the same number each time. They identify square and triangular numbers, a Fibonacci-style rule and a woven sequence, draw shapes that turn and gain a dot each step, see why 1, 2, 4 can continue in two valid ways, and find the wrong term in a sequence.
