Looking for Patterns in the Real World Ms. Renyer’s 3 rd Grade Morning Class November 2004

After we studied patterns in math, we took a tour around the school to see just how many patterns there are in the real world. Man did we find a bunch. We all got to take a picture of at least one using a digital camera. Then we put some of our pictures together to make a slideshow.

At the library I saw a mouse. The mouse had red and green strips on the arm. The pattern was ABAB. Alex.

On McKenzie's hat the pattern was ABCBA. It circulates the top of the hat. The pattern was made out of shells and beads. ISAIAH
