This medium worksheet, Even and Odd Patterns, takes second graders past sorting and into reasoning. Nine fill-in-the-blank sentences ask what happens when you add two even numbers, which even number comes right before 22, why 37 is odd because it ends in 7, and how many even numbers sit between 1 and 10. A skip-counting prompt finishes 0, 2, 4, 6, ___ and another names 44 as even because it ends in 4.

Part B is a four-pair matching puzzle that lines up labels like Even ending in 6 and Odd ending in 5 with the numbers 16, 23, 28, and 35, training children to read the ones digit with confidence.
