Imagine you're counting on your fingers. You go from 1 to 10, and then it repeats with the next hand, that’s a pattern! Numbers can also do things like repeat or follow special rules, just like how you count. Some numbers even have hidden friends called divisors or multiples that help them make patterns.
Examples
- You count from 1 to 10 and then repeat the pattern again with your other hand.
- Even numbers always end in 2, 4, 6, or 8, just like counting on even fingers.
- You notice that every time you skip-count by 3, it's a repeating number pattern.
