Overall Expectations:- recognize that patterning results from repetition- identify, extend, and create linear and non-linear geometric patterns, number and measurementpatterns, and patterns in their environment- create charts to display patterns- identify relationships between and among patterns
* All specific expectations are covered by this unit with the exception of:P7:use environmental data to create models of patterns (eg. Monday - sunny, Tuesday - rainy)and display the patterns on a chart which is covered in the daily mathematical routines.
Patterning & AlgebraOur Patterned Discoveries
As a class, let’s meet at the carpet with our patterned discoveries and read A Cloakfor the Dreamer written by Aileen Friedman and illustrated by Kim Howard. Afterreading the book we will share our patterned discoveries.
There are four attributes that can change in a pattern.Attribute Example
Colour
Size
Position
Shape

Patterning & AlgebraPatterning Rules
The core of a pattern is the shortest string of objects that repeat. Let’s take a lookat the pattern below:
The core of this pattern is:
The core of the pattern is also given a name. Each DIFFERENT object in the coreof the pattern is given a letter. This pattern core is named ABCD.
Let’s try another example:
What is the core of the pattern?
What is the name of the pattern? _______________________________________
What attributes change in the pattern?______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On the next page, Merlin has started some patterns but could not finish them. Would you finish the patterns for Merlin? Be sure to also name the pattern coreand list the attributes that change.

Merlin has a problem!
Merlin and Charlotte are racing up the TWELVE steps to the top of the tower. Charlotte lands on every second step and Merlin lands on every third step. Whichsteps will they both land on?

Patterning & AlgebraThe longest pattern in the school
Merlin has a challenge for you. In groups of four, he is challenging you to makethe longest pattern possible. You may use any math manipulative, or you maymake your own pattern shapes with paper, pencils and scissors.

Merlin has a Problem!
On January 1st, Charlotte gave Merlin 5 bugs. On February 1st, she gave him 10bugs. If Charlotte were to keep following this pattern of giving Merlin twice asmany bugs as she gave him the month before, how many bugs would he have onJune 1st?

Patterning and AlgebraNumber Patterns with Adding
Charlotte loves playing number leap frog with Merlin. But Merlin needs your helpfiguring out Charlotte’s leaps. Help Merlin solve Charlotte’s number patterns andwrite down her pattern rule for Merlin.
Remember a pattern is a repeating core or a repeating operation.

Calculators are a fun tool to use to explore patterns. Punch in an addition sentencelike (1 + 1 =). If you keep pressing the (=) button you can quickly build a numberpattern.What would be the pattern rule:_________________________________________
Explore the following number patterns with your calculator. Each time you pressthe (=) button write down the number you get.

Patterning & AlgebraPatterns in Hundreds Charts
Merlin loves finding patterns in hundreds charts. He is wondering if you can findyour own pattern.
Pick a number between 2 and 10. I pick _________________________________.
Colour that number in on the hundreds chart. Then skip count using the numberyou picked until 100 (for example: if you picked 2, you would colour 2 in thehundreds chart and then count by twos and colour in 4, 6, 8, . . . all the way up to100).

Merlin has a Problem!
Merlin has a $10.00 roll of quarters for lunch money. Lunch costs 75 cents eachday. How many days will the roll of quarters last? Will there be any quarters leftover?
