Classroom practice and state assessment
Rhode Island’s RICAS overview lists English language arts and mathematics in Grades 3–8, including Grade 5. Follow the school’s assigned dates and current assessment directions. An independent practice resource has its own tools, timing, question count, and scoring; its result does not establish a state performance level. Read official RICAS guidance.
Connect Two Patterns on a Graph
Pair two number patterns and read their graph, with an explained Grade 5 activity, Rhode Island references, lessons, and printable practice.
Two rules, corresponding terms
Pattern A starts at 2 and adds 2. Pattern B starts at 6 and adds 6. Write four terms in each pattern, pair terms in the same positions, and explain the relationship. On this graph the horizontal coordinate is A and the vertical coordinate is B.
Follow the reasoning
A gives 2, 4, 6, 8; B gives 6, 12, 18, 24. The ordered pairs are (2, 6), (4, 12), (6, 18), (8, 24). In every pair, B is three times A. The starting value in B is three times A’s starting value, and each increase of 6 is three times the increase of 2. The same relationship therefore continues at corresponding positions. Read the labeled coordinate values: one grid interval is 2 on A’s axis but 6 on B’s axis.
Check the pairing
Pair the first term with the first term and the second with the second. Pairing A’s first term 2 with B’s second term 12 changes the task. The graph’s visual slope also depends on its drawing scales; the numerical relationship comes from the coordinates.
Try the next step
The fifth pair is (10, 30). Explain the relationship before extending both axes to plot it. The current graph ends at A = 8 and B = 24; the new point lies beyond its labeled range.
Selected Rhode Island mathematics reference
The Rhode Island mathematics page identifies the Rhode Island Core Standards endorsed March 9, 2021. The linked 2021 mathematics document adapts the 2017 Massachusetts framework. Use the actual Rhode Island clause and its surrounding grade expectations when planning instruction; a generic Common Core code list alone does not establish the same state requirements.
| State reference | Selected focus | Complete requirement |
|---|---|---|
| 5.OA.3 | Generate two numerical patterns, relate corresponding terms, and graph ordered pairs | Read PDF page 30 |
This original worked activity develops one selected focus. It is not the complete grade curriculum or a certified alignment of every independently published learning resource. Read the other grade expectations and the school’s actual course sequence.
Choose a next task from the student’s explanation
Use a different set of numbers to check whether the student can explain the same relationship. If the explanation is unclear, return to the model; if the reasoning is sound but a calculation is wrong, work through a shorter calculation and check it against the model. Use the related learning resources alongside the teacher’s assigned goals.

Grade 5 math: useful planning questions
Why label the scales on both axes?
Equal distances on the drawing need not represent equal numerical increases. Read each axis’s labels before interpreting a point or comparing the patterns.
