This fun worksheet is designed to compliment the Movement Patterns Cards activity. Students will create their own movement patterns for a partner to copy and continue. This is a terrific way of bringing physical activity into your maths classroom!
Provide both sheets to each student to cut and paste their own movement patterns. Once their patterns are complete, have students swap with a partner and try to copy and continue the patterns.
Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols
Uses objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems
Supports conclusions by explaining or demonstrating how answers were obtained
Recognises, describes and continues repeating patterns
Describes mathematical situations using everyday language, actions, materials and informal recordings
Uses objects, actions, technology and/or trial and error to explore mathematical problems
Uses concrete materials and/or pictorial representations to support conclusions
Applies an understanding of place value and the role of zero to read, write and order two- and three-digit numbers
Uses the structure of equal groups to solve multiplication problems, and shares or groups to solve division problems
Recognises, describes and continues repeating patterns
Recognise, continue and create repeating patterns with numbers, symbols, shapes and objects, identifying the repeating unit
Recognise, copy and continue repeating patterns represented in different ways
Sort and classify familiar objects and explain the basis for these classifications. Copy, continue and create patterns with objects and drawings
Follow a short sequence of instructions; recognise, copy, continue and create repeating patterns represented in different ways
Sort and classify familiar objects and explain the basis for these classifications, and copy, continue and create patterns with objects and drawings
Encourage students to use an AB pattern or provide adult assistance to those that need it.
Ask students to label what the pattern core is or design their own patterns by drawing and labeling different movements.
