We can use patterns to work out information in tables.
Now work through the questions below.
Complete two or three of these pages to practise using patterns with charts and tables. Always look to work out what the rule is first, by checking two or three of the examples (don't just rely on checking one example, because it doesn't always work!)
Squirrel Tag: All players but 2 are scattered in the playing area.
- Place 4 hula-hoops at the four corners of the playing area, which are safety zones. Players can stay 20 seconds in a safety zone, or until someone else steps into the hoop following them. Only one player is allowed in a hoop at a time.
- Place one in the middle, which is the squirrel's home. 2 players are chosen to be squirrels.
- On the go signal, the squirrels chase and try to tag someone (as if they are collecting nuts - as squirrels do!). If successful, they change places. The new squirrel must run to the centre hoop and yell "New squirrel!" before chasing others.
