Patterning - Missing from 4 Item Repeating Number Pattern (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on identifying and completing patterns within a sequence of numbers. The core skill practiced is pinpointing the missing item in a 4-item repeating number pattern. Each problem provides a sequence where one part of the pattern is omitted, and the student has to determine the correct missing number from two given options. The patterns vary slightly in their complexity and arrangement, developing the skill of recognizing and predicting the behavior of numerical patterns. This helps in enhancing logical thinking and problem-solving related to pattern recognition.
