Strangman, Kathryn Besic – Mathematics Teacher, 1974
Ways of finding the sums of some interesting sequences of numbers are discussed. Finding the patterns creates a challenge, but the patterns are not too difficult for average pupils to discover. Mathematical induction can then be used to prove the formulas. (LS)

Gersting, Judith L. – Two-Year College Mathematics Journal, 1975
The author presents two approaches she has used successfully as advance organizers for discussion of mathematical induction. These approaches provide examples which can be used in later discussion. (SD)

Willcutt, Bob – Arithmetic Teacher, 1974
Multibase arithmetic blocks are used to investigate the minimum number of blocks of each size to make a square of a given size in a given base. Generalizations are made to any size and any base through pattern recognition. The problem is extended to rectangles, cubes, and rectangular solids. (LS)

Weaver, Cloman – Mathematics Teacher, 1974
Details of an investigation into polygonal numbers are given. From a study of the tabled series, patterns are discovered both within and between the various polygonal series. From a study of these results and the corresponding figures, formulas are developed. (LS)
