We met our new Grade 5 Learning Buddies this week. Each week we will get together with them to read, play math games, play cards or do special projects. We usually change buddies once a year. 
We have been working on repeating patterns in Math. Repeating patterns have a core that is repeated and more than one attribute can be in the pattern. We have been working with size, colour, shape, position and now have added thickness. We have had fun making patterns with manipulatives and drawing patterns as well. Although you can't really see it in the pictures, the children used the thickness of the various shapes in their patterns as well as the other attributes. This makes the pattern more difficult.
