Extend These Year 5 Patterns and Algebra Concepts

These year 5 patterns and algebra worksheets are a gateway to essential algebra skills, and the concepts included in this resource can easily be extended. 

For example, at this stage, students are accustomed to seeing input/output rules listed as ‘+ 4’ or ‘multiply by 3.’ But these rules in this number patterns year 5 worksheet set can easily be replaced with equations containing variables in future lessons— so ‘+4’ becomes y = x+4, and ‘multiply by 3’ becomes y = 3x. 

If you have students who need an extra challenge, ask them to rewrite the rules provided on the tables on the top section of the first two worksheets as equations. If they show proficiency with this task, tell them to add equations to the fraction and decimal patterns at the bottom as well!
