An AI-generated bank of pattern questions covering shape patterns, number patterns, growing and shrinking sequences, function tables, and arithmetic sequences. Built for Years 1 to 9 / Grades 1 to 9. Differentiated, curriculum-aligned, and ready to print or assign.
.avif)
Three difficulty tiers ship with every topic so one lesson can serve the whole room. Enabling prompts scaffold the pattern rule visually for students still building the language of pattern. Core questions target the year-level expectation. Extending prompts push toward generalisation, the nth term, and algebraic representation. One topic, three depths, zero extra prep.


Every question is generated against a specific learning intention, not pulled from a static PDF. Pick a year level, pick a sub-topic — shape patterns, skip counting, growing patterns, shrinking patterns, function tables, or arithmetic sequences — and the bank produces fresh problems with worked answers. Re-roll for more questions whenever the class needs another pass.
Pattern reasoning is the on-ramp to algebra. The bank moves students from concrete to abstract: repeating shape patterns in the early years, skip counting and number sequences in Years 2 to 4 / Grades 2 to 4, growing and shrinking patterns and function tables in Years 5 to 7 / Grades 5 to 7, then arithmetic sequences and the nth term in Years 7 to 9 / Grades 7 to 9.

Hundreds of questions span shape patterns, skip counting, growing and shrinking patterns, function tables, and arithmetic sequences — generated on demand for any year or grade.
Switch between visual patterns, number sequences, and table-based reasoning so students see the same idea from multiple representations.
Three tiers per topic — enabling, core, and extending — so the same lesson works for the student catching up and the student ready for pre-algebra.

Shape and Repeating Patterns (Years 1 to 2 / Grades 1 to 2)
Early-years questions focus on identifying, continuing, and creating repeating patterns with shapes, colours, and objects. Students name the pattern unit (AB, ABB, ABC), predict the next term, and spot a deliberate error in a sequence. Visual scaffolds support students who are still building the language of pattern.
Number Patterns and Skip Counting (Years 2 to 4 / Grades 2 to 4)
Students move from concrete to numerical patterns: skip counting by 2s, 3s, 5s, and 10s, continuing number sequences, and finding the missing term. The bank includes forward and backward counting, patterns on a hundreds chart, and word problems that connect skip counting to early multiplication.
Growing patterns, shrinking patterns, function tables, and arithmetic sequences (Years 3 to 9 / Grades 3 to 9)
Growing patterns add a constant amount each term and shrinking patterns subtract. Students describe the rule in words, extend the sequence, and work backwards from a later term. From Year 5 / Grade 5, function tables introduce input-output thinking. By Years 7 to 9 / Grades 7 to 9, students analyse arithmetic sequences, find the common difference, and write the nth term — the pre-algebra foundation for linear functions.
