Activities
A. Setting the stage Drill
Have a drill on skip counting by 2’s, 3, etc. (The instruction will be explained by
the teacher).
How were you able to follow sequence of our skip counting? Emphasize
the value of alertness.
Do this exercise on patterns. Let the pupils fill in the missing shapes/numbers.

Review
Review odd and even numbers, multiples and factors of a number.
Ask: What are odd numbers? What are even numbers?
What are the multiples of 3 and 4?
Motivation
Have a game on identifying whether a number is odd or even using a flashcard.
Ask: Have you tried answering a number pattern with missing terms?
Let them know that odd or even numbers are used in number patterns.

B. Explaining the Presentation

Students Present this situation to the class.

Mr. Villaflor presented these number patterns to his Math class.

3, 6, 9, 12, ____, _____.
4, 8, 12, 16, ____, _____.
5, ___, 15, 20, ____, 30.

Ask: What do you think are the missing terms in these following number
patterns?
Let the pupils answer these given problems.

Processing the Activities

Ask them: “How did you get the missing term in each sequence of
numbers?”

Expected Answers:
Determine the order of numbers if it is ascending or descending.
(Ascending order is rising or increasing to a higher level/number. On the other
hand, descending order is to go or move from a higher to lower level/number).
Find the difference between the consecutive terms.
(Use subtraction to find the difference)
Determine whether the difference between the terms are all odd, even, multiples of
a number, factors of a number.
To find the missing term, use the difference between terms.

C. Modelling Reinforcing the Concept and Skill

A list of numbers arranged in a row is called number sequence. Each number in

the sequence is called a term. To find the missing term/s in a number sequence, we
must first look for its pattern.
Look closely at 7, 10, ___, and 16 ____. In the number sequence, each term is
formed by adding 3 to the preceding number. So, the missing terms are 10+3=13
and 16+3=19. See to it that the pattern is true to the whole sequence from 7 to 19.
Here is another example of a number sequence. Find the missing terms: 45, 37, 29,
___, ____, 5. The sequence of numbers is in descending order. Get the difference
between 45 and 37. In like manner with 37 and 29, the difference is 8. The missing
terms are 21 and 13 since 13 is 8 more than the last term which is 5.
Let us take a look at this example.
What are the missing terms in
6, 8, 12, ___, 26, ___ ? Look closely at the difference of 6 and 8 (8-6=2); 8 and 12
(12-8=4). The difference is a multiple of 2. The missing terms may be 18 and 36.
Adding 6 to 12 becomes 18 and adding 8 to 18 becomes 36. Hence, 18 and 36 are
the missing terms.
Here is another example.
Find the missing terms in this number sequence: 1, 3, 7, 15, ____. Get the
difference of the consecutive terms. Take note that as the number increases, the
difference is multiplied by the common factor of each term which is 2.

1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63

2 4 8 16 32

To find the missing terms, multiply the preceding difference by 2 and then add the
product to the current term to obtain the next term.

8 x 2 = 16 16 + 15 = 31 is the fifth term

16 x 2 = 32 32 + 31 = 63 is the sixth term

The same process will be done to obtain the succeeding terms.
