Patterns and early algebra resources for Australian Curriculum V9

Early algebra is about noticing structure, not memorising a rule. SkillrHub’s Year 1 resources help students recognise, continue, create and explain patterns using numbers, shapes, symbols and objects.

Skip-counting patterns

Recognise and continue sequences formed by counting in 2s, 5s and 10s.

Repeating patterns

Identify the repeating unit and use it to continue or create a sequence.

Explain the rule

Describe what stays the same and what changes across a pattern.
