Shape Attributes
Big Ideas
Patterns exhibit relationships that can be extended, described, and generalized.
Geometric relationships can be described, analyzed, and classified based on spatial reasoning and/or visualization.
Essential Questions
How can patterns be used to describe relationships in mathematical situations?
How can recognizing repetition or regularity assist in solving problems more efficiently
How are spatial relationships, including shape and dimension, used to draw, construct, model, and represent real situations or solve problems?
