Discovering Patterns in Maths

Learning objective

Learning Objective

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to recognise, create, and extend patterns using numbers and shapes.

What do you already know about patterns in maths?

What is a Pattern?

A pattern is a repeated or recurring sequence. It can be numbers, shapes, or colours.

Identifying Patterns

Look for sequences that repeat. Examples include the sequence 2, 4, 6, 8 or a series of shapes.

Creating Patterns

Use numbers or shapes to form your own patterns. Start simple, then try more complex sequences.

Chilli One - Basic Patterns

Identify and extend simple patterns with numbers or shapes.

Chilli Two - Intermediate Patterns

Work with more complex patterns that change incrementally.

Chilli Three - Advanced Patterns

Discover and create intricate patterns with multiple rules.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Extending Patterns

To extend a pattern, find the rule and apply it to continue the sequence.
