Abstract
Activities that engage middle school students in investigating and extending patterns are essential in developing students' algebraic thinking. The Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989) for grades 5-8 and the position statement on “Algebra for Everyone” (NCTM 1994) describe the importance of using patterns and relationships to develop algebraic thinking.
