This week we have been making patterns. Ask your child to be a Pattern Detective and ask them to look for patterns at home that show translations (a picture or pattern that repeats to make a pattern) or rotations ( a picture or pattern that repeats around in a circle). One place to look for these is in wallpaper or tiling. Ask them to explain what is happening in the patterns they find.
Vocabulary:
Translations (slide a shape)
Reflections (flip a shape)
Rotations (turn a shape)
