Today's Math-Patterns

Both the Gr.1's and 2's are working on a unit on patterns. The kids are learning the words pattern, repeat and core (the part of the pattern that repeats). Grade 2 are going one step further and learning about attributes (colour, size,shape and orientation) and elements (the parts) of patterns. Below are journal entries from both grades. The Gr. 1 kids had to make a pattern, label it (tell me if it is AB or and ABC etc. pattern) and tell me the core (they did this part orally so you won't see it on their pictures). The Gr.2 kids wrote about their patterns. Below are a few examples done in class today.
