Patterning - Visual Patterns Basics

Unit 5

This math unit progresses through developing fundamental skills in pattern recognition and logical reasoning with shape patterns. Initially, students learn to identify and complete missing items in simple two-item repeating shape patterns, enhancing their ability to predict and understand sequences. As the unit progresses, the complexity increases to three-item and then four-item repeating patterns, challenging students to both identify missing elements and predict the next items in longer sequences. The latter part of the unit introduces exercises on term value identification, where students determine the position of specific shapes in patterns of increasing lengths. This section requires students to apply their understanding of patterns to recognize term positions, further strengthening their analytical skills. By the end of the unit, learners are equipped to handle more complex pattern recognition tasks, laying a solid foundation for understanding structured sequences and logical analysis in mathematics.more
