IN THE CLASSROOM

In grades K-3, children use link cubes or dabbers and strips of inch-grid chart paper to build colourful repeating patterns. They perform the patterns by singing the colour sequence, playing notes on a xylophone, and hopping or dancing them on colour mats.

They also build their patterns using link cubes or grids of different widths and notice what new patterns emerge.

In grades 3-6, students also build repeating patterns on a number grid with code.

Students share the story Repeating Patterns and their learning at home.
