Patterns

Explore math patterns! Create, describe, and identify repeating sequences with colors, shapes, and coding basics.

Create a pattern Create and draw a pattern using colours or shapes. It can be as long as you like but not less than 20 objects Write out your pattern using words e.g. red; blue; yellow; red; blue; yellow; red..... Create a name for the part of your pattern that repeats e.g. red; yellow; blue = primary Write out your pattern using only the name for the repeated part. Describe your pattern in 1 step. e.g. primary x 10 Watch the video Functions Fill in the blanks based on the video A pattern is a sequence of steps that are repeated.Functions are blocks of code made up of a repeated sequence of steps or instructions. It is given a name so that it can be repeated again and again In coding this saves time and makes the code easier to read.
