Nicole Meagher done in 5th grade classroom for math lesson **GLES:** M(N&O)–5–8 ** Applies properties of numbers ** (odd, even, and  divisibility) and ** field properties ** (commutative, associative,   identity, and distributive) ** to solve problems and to simplify ** computations. (Local) M(F&A)–5–1 ** Identifies and extends to specific cases ** a variety of patterns (linear and nonlinear) represented in models, tables, sequences, or in problem situations; and writes a rule in words or sc symbols for finding specific cases of a linear relationship. (State) M(DSP)–5–1 ** Interprets a given representation ** (tables, bar graphs, circle graphs, or line graphs) to answer questions related to the data, to analyze the data to formulate or justify conclusions, to make predictions, or to solve problems. (State) (IMPORTANT: // Analyzes data consistent with concepts // and skills in M(DSP)–5–2  .) M(DSP)–5–2 ** Analyzes patterns, trends, or distributions ** in data in a variety of contexts by determining or using measures of central tendency (mean, median, or mode) or range to analyze situations, or to solve problems. (State) M(DSP)–5–3 ** Organizes and displays data ** using tables, bar graphs, or line graphs to answer questions related to the data, to analyze the data to formulate or justify conclusions, to make predictions, or to solve problems.

 * Objectives**:
 * 1) student is able to apply properties of numbers and field properties in order to complete the chart.
 * 2) student identifies and extends to specific cases a variety of patterns represented in the activity sheet and provides examples of patterns in class discussion.
 * 3) student interprets a given representation to analyze and make predictions of how to complete the chart.
 * 4) student analyzes patterns and trends in the chart.
 * 5) student organizes and displays their data neatly in the chart.
