Teaching approaches
Gakuva’s recommended starting approach is selected. You can still compare every option.
1 approach
Number Pattern Relationships means practising the idea at the table with counters or paper models and one clear check. We will demo once, then your child tries.
Materials: Tally sheet or simple bar sketch; A short set of category counts. Adult tallies one category and sketches a bar. Child tallies three categories and answers one comparison question. Done: three tallies plus one correct comparison. Stop after the fresh check; keep optional challenge for another day.

Source, access and review notes
Public Illustrative Mathematics task page. The .html address responds HTTP 308 to this URL. An anonymous GET of this URL on 2026-11-12 returned HTTP 200 with no login or payment prompt. Where a teacher solution is present, it is on the same page as the student task; this check did not find a separate locked student view. An adult can use the student view section and should not read a solution aloud. Advertising was not observed in the fetched HTML text; that is not a browser, device, or ad-free guarantee. This is a paper or discussion task, not an automatically marked interactive game. Opening the link does not save practice or assess mastery. Diagrams on the page use missing or filename-only alt text, so they are not an accessible image equivalent. Accessibility still depends on an adult describing the picture.

Check understanding
- Generate sequences starting at 0 with rules 'add 3' and 'add 6'; observe terms in one are twice the other
- Form ordered pairs from corresponding terms and plot them on a coordinate grid
- Explain informally why the relationship between the two sequences holds
“Can your child follow two number patterns at once — for example, "add 2" and "add 4" — pair up the matching terms, and plot those pairs as points on a graph?”
