The student card serves as a fantastic personal reference throughout the pattern unit and afterwards. It is part of a larger a unit designed to help students through year 4 number patterns, where they begin to describe patterns resulting from multiplication.
Follow and create algorithms involving a sequence of steps and decisions that use addition or multiplication to generate sets of numbers; identify and describe any emerging patterns
Explore and describe number patterns resulting from performing multiplication
Investigate number sequences involving multiples of 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9
Explore and describe number patterns resulting from performing multiplication
Uses appropriate terminology to describe, and symbols to represent, mathematical ideas
Selects and uses appropriate mental or written strategies, or technology, to solve problems
Checks the accuracy of a statement and explains the reasoning used
Generalises properties of odd and even numbers, generates number patterns, and completes simple number sentences by calculating missing values
Selects and uses mental and written strategies for addition and subtraction involving 2- and 3-digit numbers
