, MFP1501 ASSESSMENT 04 DUE 12SEPTEMBER2023Question 1
A Pattern is at the heart of learning mathematics. We construct
mathematical ideas through the identification of patterns and
relationships, which constitute the route to formal algebra.
Repeating patterns consist of a series of related elements, in which
each new element relates to the previous one in some orderly
manner. At the Foundation Phase level, we can focus on both non-
numeric and numeric patterns.
1.1 Discuss two reasons why you should teach patterns in the
Foundation Phase. (5
There are two main reasons why teaching patterns in the
Foundation Phase is important:
1) Cognitive Development: By engaging with patterns, children are
able to develop their cognitive skills such as critical thinking,
problem-solving, and logical reasoning. Recognizing patterns helps
children to make sense of their environment, identify similarities
and differences, and make predictions. These skills form the
foundation for higher order thinking and mathematical
understanding.
2) Mathematical Understanding: Patterns are the building blocks of
algebra and mathematical reasoning. Teaching patterns in the
Foundation Phase allows children to develop an understanding of
mathematical concepts such as sequencing, number relationships,
and generalizations. Recognizing and analysing patterns helps
children to see the underlying structure and rules of mathematics,
providing a solid foundation for future learning.
1.2Consider the following patterns to design a learning activity to
teach Grade 3 learners.
