This week has been Maths week and as a school we have been focusing on pattern. We have had a very buys, full week making sure we are doing lots of pattern activities.
We used our novel in Literacy to place main events into a sequence. We then looked at number sequences in maths for example- 2,4,6,8 is going up in 2’s. We also learned square numbers which means multiplying the number by itself. 4 squared is then (4×4) which is 16.
We also created Artwork to do with pattern. We created Escher artwork which is the repetition of fish and we then coloured these in pattern we wanted. In groups we also created animals which have a pattern. For example a zebra!
We have been really busy learning and creating our own patterns also.
Violet- I liked challenging myself on all new aspects of maths.
Aaraa- I liked creating the fish patterns.
Alfie- I liked taking part in pattern art.
Craig- I liked creating my own patterns with the time table squares.
Jenna- I liked the maths colour in patterns to see how this would end up.
