- Organize observations into a table of values
- Identify the constant change or rule connecting inputs to outputs
- Write a general rule or expression to predict future terms
- pattern (patrón) — Something that repeats or changes in a predictable way.
- pattern rule (regla del patrón) — The instruction that tells how to get from one number in a pattern to the next.
- generalization (generalización) — A statement that is true for a whole pattern, made by noticing repeated calculations.
- table of values (tabla de valores) — A table that lists each step of a pattern so you can check that a solution is reasonable.
- reasonableness (sensatez del resultado) — Whether an answer makes sense — checked as you work, with adjustments made when needed.
- Reporting only the points from the streak (20 or 30) and forgetting to add the points each player had before the streak began.

2 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Akela's jar totals $53.50. Why can the number of pennies only be a multiple of 5?
- ABecause the total's cents end in 0, and only pennies make amounts that aren't multiples of 5 cents
- BBecause pennies always come in rolls of 5
- CBecause there are exactly 5 kinds of coins in the jar
- DBecause $53.50 is divisible by 5
