ICSE Class 5 Maths, Unit 10: Patterns
From the CISCE curriculum. 5 key concepts, about 2 days of study at 20 to 30 minutes a day.
What this unit aims at
Children are now confident at this stage with observing and generalizing patterns in numbers and shapes. This will help them in other themes of mathematics like applying operations on numbers (whole numbers, common and decimal fractions), properties of various 2-D shapes and 3-D figures and measurements. They should explore additional properties of whole numbers like triangular and square numbers through patterns.
Your child should be able to
- observe and identify patterns with a unit of repeat and extend it
- observe and generalize a rule to extend a progressive pattern
- create a pattern with more than one characteristic
- observe and generalize patterns of triangular and square numbers
Key concepts in this unit
- Patterns with a unit of repeat and their extension.
- Progressive patterns.
- Extension of progressive patterns.
- Patterns with more than one characteristic.
- Triangular and square numbers.
Teach this unit at home
- A day-by-day plan from the CISCE concepts, so you know what to cover each day.
- A step-by-step script for each day, so you know what to say and ask (AI-written from the CISCE curriculum, so check it against your child's school book).
- A quiz at the end.
