An arrangement that follows a rule. A repeated set of numbers, shapes or objects.

Composing pattern block images

Maths

Copy, extend and describe repeating patterns

Radiating patterns

Compose tangram images

Tetrominoes and pentominoes

Examine ways that cubes can be composed into different arrangements

Explore, recognise and compare three different 3D shapes

Explore, recognise and compare three more 3D shapes

Identify 2D shapes within 3D shapes

Recognise, describe and sort 3D shapes

Explore and recognise 2D shapes

Explore, discuss and compare 2D shapes

Explore, discuss and identify shapes that are and are not circles

Explore, discuss and identify shapes that are and are not triangles

Explore, discuss and identify shapes that are and are not rectangles

In this unit pupils will compose, copy, extend and develop repeating and radiating patterns. They will explore, discuss and compare 3D and 2D shapes. In the future unit pupils will  learn that polygons can be described, sorted, compared and named according to the number of sides and vertices. They will describe 3D shapes finding different ways to sort and compare them.

In prior learning, pupils will have developed their spatial reasoning skills in the area of shape, space and measures. In this unit pupils will compose, copy, extend and develop radiating patterns and discuss and compare 2D and 3D shapes.
