You can observe patterns - things like colors, shapes, actions, or other sequences that repeat - everywhere. Think about words or melodies in songs, lines and curves on buildings, or even in the grocery store where boxes and jars of various items are lined up.
But, one of the most common places to find patterns is in math. Math patterns are sequences that repeat according to a rule or rules. In math, a rule is a set way to calculate or solve a problem.

Use a number line to see the distance between the numbers or what they have in common. Look at the last one or two digits or the first digit to see if they repeat in a special manner. Look at the numbers and see if there is a pattern, like taking each number and multiplying by 3 for instance.
