Year 1
Students need this knowledge first
I can find a repeating pattern in the classroom or in a picture — Unit 12: Patterns
I can look at the start of a pattern and work out what comes next — Unit 12: Patterns
I can invent a repeating pattern of my own — Unit 12: Patterns
Instruction
Extension
I can find the repeating unit in a pattern and show where it starts and ends
I can say how many items are in the repeating unit
I can identify a repeating unit that is three or four items long
I can identify the repeating unit when the pattern starts part way through it
I can recognise a sequence that changes without repeating, and say why it is not a repeating pattern
Success Criteria
Lesson 1: Identifying Repetition Patterns
We are learning to identify the repeating unit in a pattern and to say how long it is.

Instruction
Extension
I can build a pattern from a repeating unit I have been given
I can create a pattern with a repeating unit of three or more items
I can make the same pattern using different materials, such as claps and stamps instead of blocks
I can say the rule of my pattern and check that my pattern follows it
I can find the error in a pattern someone else has built and say what the rule should have been
Success Criteria
