Symmetry & Patterns Explorer
Build a Symmetry & Patterns Explorer with simple, safe materials. Learners observe cause–effect and record basic data. Covers foundational concepts in Math/Art.
Recommended for ages 6-8
About This Kit
Learners construct Symmetry & Patterns Explorer using readily available parts and follow a predict–observe–explain cycle. They investigate variables, record data, and explain outcomes in their own words. Topics covered include core principles in Math/Art, good measurement practice, and real‑world applications. Includes reflection prompts, a data table, and an extension challenge to deepen understanding.
Learning Outcome
Learner discovers mirror symmetry, repeating patterns
What's Inside
Mirrors, paper cutouts, rulers
