The Power of Pattern (Maths Session 2) Morning Session
Online CourseStronger Practice Hub Event
The Power of Pattern – how recognising patterns and structures supports all areas of mathematics. Pattern is a defining quality of mathematics, and children’s pattern awareness is a key predictor of later maths learning. Almost all mathematics is based on pattern and structure, and helping children recognise the regularities and relationships in all sorts of patterns helps them “make sense” of mathematics. We will consider the diverse forms of pattern, progression in repeating patterns, and key experiences that support pattern understanding – helping children be pattern spotters and problem-solvers!
