And the Rule is ..... (Skip-Counting Patterns)

We've been looking at patterns and deciding what the rule is to continue each pattern,
 and how to use charts and tables to show our information.
(We used a Level 1 NZ Maths unit called Beetle Wheels)

Skip-Counting Patterns from Judy McKenzie on Vimeo.

Can you leave a letter, number or object pattern for us?

    Well done B4!

    I can see you are all mastering patterns and can explain the rules needed to continue the patterns. All of your charts are very impressive. :)

    Hello B4!
    I love.your charts and pictures to show your skip counting! They are really colourful. We had a go at continuing your patterns using our x tables.
    We have been learning about shape in A Room with a View, so can you continue this counting pattern for the number of sides on pentagons... 5, 10, 15... Can you tell how many sides there are on a pentagon from our puzzle?

      Dear Mrs Monaghan
      Thanks for the lovely comment.
      There are 5 sides on a pentagon.

      How many kids do you have in your glass?

    Dear B4,
    I loved your pattern charts! What a great way to illustrate patterns. We will have to give this a try.

    We make a different pattern each day during calendar. This month we are using skeletons, pumpkins, bats, and candy corn to make the patterns. First we identify the pattern core and then we try to add on to the pattern. After that we change it to a letter pattern and then a movement or sound pattern.

    Here is the pattern we did this morning (with pictures):

    skeleton, bat, pumpkin, skeleton,skeleton, bat, pumpkin, skeleton, __________, __________, _________, __________

    Can you finish our pattern?

    Your friend,
    Mrs. W
