– continue a simple pattern
– generalise the pattern
– use the mathematical symbols of =,
<, >
– partition numbers less than 10
– know and use "teen" facts
– solve addition problems by making
a ten, or making a decade

measurements

relationships
– draw the next shape in a pattern
sequence
– see how the pattern continues
from one shape to the next
– draw up a table of values
– identify patterns in number
sequences
– systematically “count” to establish
rules for sequential patterns
– use rules to make predictions

• Can you see his eye?
• Use powerpoint to make a
Humped Back 3-pede with the
green tiles.
Underneath your insect, type in
your generalisation about the
pattern you see. Save your
powerpoint as Algebra Week 7.
• Can you work our how many
squares a Humped Back 4-pede
has? Type in your answer under
your generalisation.

(The feet are the bottom squares).
• How many feet has a Humped-Back Pede
with 18 squares?
How many feet has a Humped-Back Pede
with 20 squares?
How did you work these out? Give a
generalisation.
• Can you tell me how to get the number of
squares that a Humped-Back Pede with a
particular number of feet has?

7. Lesson 2
• There are other
insects on the planet
Elsinore. They look
as if they have been
made up from
squares. The ones
with one foot are
called 1-pedes. The
ones with two feet
are called 2-pedes
and the ones with 3
feet are called 3-
pedes.

8. Lesson 2
• Did you know that ‘pede’
means ‘foot’?
Hint: write the

Tell me how many
squares a 1-pede has?
How many squares does
a 2-pede have?
What about a 3-pede?
(Put the numbers of
squares beside the
insects).
Copy the questions and use a
different colour for your answers.

13. Lesson 3
• Create the 4 – Spotted
Pede.
• Answer these questions.
• How many red squares 4- Spotted Pede
does a Spotted 4-pede
have?
How many blue squares
does a Spotted 4-pede
have?
How many squares all
together?
• How did you work that
out?
Why are there more
blue squares than red
squares?
• How many more?

14. Lesson 3
• Create the 5 and 6 – Spotted
Pede.
• Answer these questions.
• How many red squares does a 4- Spotted Pede
Spotted 5-pede have?
• 6-pede?
How many blue squares does
a Spotted 5-pede have?
How many squares all

• How many blue squares does

• How did you work that out?

15. Lesson 3
• Challenge –
• How many red
squares does a 10 - Spotted Pede
Spotted 10-pede
have?
• How many blue
squares does a
Spotted 10-pede
have?

16. Lesson 3
• What did you find
out about the
Spotted Pedes?
• What patterns did
you find?
• Make sure your
answers are in the
same powerpoint.

17. Lesson 4
• We are learning to: • How do I know when I have
learnt this?
– continue a simple – I am able to continue a simple
pattern pattern.
– generalise the pattern – I am able to make a

18. Lesson 4
• Here we are going to
explore the Big-Headed
Pedes. This is what they
look like.
• How many yellow
squares does a Big-
Headed Pede 4-pede
have?
How many yellow
squares does a Big-
Headed Pede 5-pede
have?
How many yellow
squares does a Big-
Headed Pede 6-pede
have?
Do you need to draw the insects to work out how many squares they have? Why or why
not?
Could you work out how many yellow squares a Big-Headed Pede 10-pede would have?

19. Lesson 4
• What did you find out
about the Big-Headed
Pedes?
• What patterns did you
find? Think about the
squares that make up
the feet, and the
squares that do NOT.
Feet
I saw a Big-Headed Pede with 16 yellow squares. How many feet did she have?
