                             Because we’re so familiar with 1, 2, 3, we’ll use
                                                letters.

                                           A=1
                                           B=2

              Patterns are rarely based on 7s or proceed row
                                   by row.

                       “Rather, the increased gap between Chinese
                       and U.S. students and that of Chinese
                       Americans and Caucasian Americans may be
                       due primarily to the nature of their initial gap
                       prior to formal schooling, such as counting
                       efficiency and base-ten number sense.”
