    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING on describing in words, rules for continuing number and spatial patterns


    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • Continue a spatial/geometric pattern, make up and use a rule to describe the sequence
    • Use a rule to make predictions
