recognise, describe and create additive patterns that increase or decrease by a constant amount, using numbers, shapes and objects, and identify missing elements in the pattern
- creating a pattern sequence with materials, writing the associated number sequence, and then describing the sequence so someone else can replicate it with different materials; for example, using matchsticks or toothpicks to create a growing pattern of triangles – using 3 for one triangle, 5 for 2 triangles, 7 for 3 triangles – and describing the pattern as ‘Start with 3 and add 2 each time’
- recognising patterns in the built environment to locate additive pattern sequences (for example, responding to ‘How many windows in one train carriage, 2 train carriages, 3 train carriages …?’ or ‘How many wheels on one car, 2 cars, 3 cars …?’) and recording the results in a diagram or table
- recognising the constant term being added or subtracted in an additive pattern and using it to identify missing elements in the sequence
- recognising additive patterns in the environment on Country/Place and in Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander material culture; and representing these patterns using drawings, coloured counters and numbers
