Patterns

Today the children have been learning about patterns. To help us, we were given a very exciting challenge from the rabbit out of Alice in Wonderland. During the lesson we spoke about what a pattern is and how we can create one using the skittles. The children worked in groups to recreate the given pattern. They then followed the instructions, putting the skittles onto the tray and watched as I poured the magic water over the skittles. The children were so excited as they watched the colours draw to the centre like a rainbow!

After the lesson, the children applied their knowledge to the task. Which involved creating a pattern on the Mad Hatters Hat as the nasty queen had broken his. The children did a brilliant job!
