Growing, Shrinking, Repeating Variability and Change
What you can do after seeing this presentation: • Describe how elements of a pattern are related • Describe and predict changes
Pattern Relationships • The numbers or objects in a pattern can change in predictable ways. They can: • Grow • Shrink • Repeat
Growing Patterns • To grow is to increase or expand • Patterns can be described as growing • Examples: • The shape of a plant can grow as the plant matures • Numbers can increase • Designs can expand Learn more and get some practice, too.
Shrinking Patterns • To shrink is to become smaller or more compacted or to lessen in value. • Patterns can be described as shrinking • Examples: • The height of a snow bank shrinks as spring approaches • Numbers in a pattern can lessen in value • Designs and objects can become compacted or smaller Learn more and get some practice, too.
Repeating Patterns • To repeat is to make appear again • Patterns can be described as repeating • Examples: • Numbers can repeat • Objects and designs can repeat • The seasons of the year repeat from one year to the next Learn more and get some practice, too. Take a deeper look into repeating patterns.
Shrinking Patterns • To shrink is to become smaller or more compacted or to lessen in value. • Patterns can be described as shrinking • Examples: • The height of a snow bank shrinks as spring approaches • Numbers in a pattern can lessen in value • Designs and objects can become compacted or smaller
Growing, Shrinking, AND Repeating • Sometimes a pattern does a combination. • Examples: • Grow and shrink • Grow and repeat • Shrink and repeat • Shrink, grow, and repeat Can you complete the pattern? Check your answers.
Let’s Be Mathematicians • A pattern is a set of numbers or objects that are generated by following a specific rule. • A sequence is a pattern involving an ordered arrangement of numbers, geometric figures, letters, or other objects. • If you need more help with these terms or if you would like to see more examples using these terms, check out the dictionary at Intermath.
