Patterns, patterns, patterns...

Hello Grade Fours!

For the past little while, we have been working on patterns in math class. It is a fun and exciting topic that can take many shapes and forms. Remember the art project we created with the patterns in circles? Did you realize that this also was a math activity? You can find and learn about patterns in many different ways! Here is a fun game that will allow you to test what you've learned about patterns and see if you can figure out what's coming next. Look closely! Some of them can get tricky!

Good luck! Happy Patterning!


Caregivers: In class, we have completed many different pattern activities. These have been linked cross-curricular with many different subjects, including art. The students have learned to see patterns everywhere. Try testing their knowledge- look for patterns in and around your house and see if your child can predict what's coming next! This game above will help continue their knowledge about patterns. It covers two curriculum expectations; namely, predicting geometric and numeric patterns, and extending repeating patterns through investigation including a variety of tools.


Have a great day!
