Designing Patterns for 3rd Grade Albums

This document presents a teaching unit on the design of the cover of a personal album using repeating patterns. Students will learn to identify patterns in figures of different shapes, colors, and sizes to complete borders. They will work in teams to find the rules of the patterns and present their solutions. In the end, they will reflect on the mathematical processes learned and create their own designs applying patterns.

Start Approximate time: 20 minutes


In class group

Talk to the students about what they did in the previous session; from that, ask them: Where
Will they include the personal description they did? How is your personal album turning out? Will they be able to apply?
any additional decoration that improves the presentation of the content of your album?

Present a poster with the following problem:


Forming patterns with shapes
We want to create borders to decorate the cover of our personal album, just like the one observed in the
Image. What figures would they need to draw to complete the displayed border?

Familiarization with the problem


For students to understand the problem and the mathematical relationships it presents, carry out the
siguientes preguntas: ¿Todas las figuras tienen la misma forma?, ¿tienen el mismo color?, ¿algunas se repiten?,
What varies between one figure and another?
Communicate the purpose of the session: "Today you will learn to design a border for your personal album using
patterns.

It informs that during the development of this session and the next, you will constantly observe how they relate to the
drawings among themselves to find a rule that allows them to continue or create a design, taking into account shapes
and colors. You will also pay attention to the statements they make about what they find in the
design.
Write on a poster the purpose and the criteria to be observed and stick it in a visible place in the classroom.
Agree, along with the students, on some coexistence rules suitable for this session.

Development Approximate time: 50 minutes


Search and execution of strategies

Before forming work teams, give students a few minutes to explore and recognize the design.

How do we know which figure continues in the border? What do we need to do to continue the border?
Organize everyone into teams and give each one of them one of the borders you prepared for this part of the session.
Look for them to find the regularity or the relationship that exists between each figure and the order in which they appear.
border. To do this, use the following questions: How does the color change from one figure to another? Does it change or not?
forma de las figuras?; ¿hay algún cambio en los puntitos que acompañan las figuras?, ¿cómo es ese cambio?
It is expected that some teams will mention the following:

Encourage the groups to practice affirmations about how the shapes are formed or arranged in the border. Pose this
example, so that you have a reference: 'There is always an orange figure, a yellow one, and a green one together;'
this keeps repeating, but the dots next to each other increase from one to three and then return to
"start one below the other". Ask if these statements allow them to determine which figures continue in the
border. Then, ask them to complete the borders that were given to them.

Comment that up to this moment you have observed how they have related the figures and found a rule for

Encourage the groups to ask questions. Keep in mind that as the teams present their proposals,

to the team. To this end, you can ask questions like these: What figure comes after this one?, How do we
How do I form this border? What should the continuing figure look like?

Reflection and formalization of knowledge


It is important to observe the shapes, the colors, and the patterns to find the next figure in the border.

Stick a border on the board and invite the students to point out which figures are repeating.
It mentions that when there is a group of figures, objects, etc., arranged in a way that they repeat fulfilling
Always the same rule, a pattern of repetition is formed. Indicate the pattern in the drawing and name it:

Reflect with the students on the processes and strategies they followed to solve the problem.

drawings and colors?, why?; what mathematical knowledge have we discovered by doing these activities?;
Will there be another way to solve the proposed problem?; How else can we organize the information?

It raises other issues.


Indicate to the students that, individually, they create various creative borders using paper.

Closure Approximate time: 20 minutes

Engage in a dialogue with the boys and girls based on these questions: What did you learn today?; How do you recognize
a graphic pattern?, what are graphic patterns useful for?; did you enjoy completing the designs for the cover?
from their personal album?; in what other situations could they identify and complete designs?; would they like to receive a
design of your best friend from class?, how would they feel about a gift like that?

To work from home


Assign the students to complete the activities on pages 19 and 20 of the Workbook.
