Utsav (Patterns)

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure A (the images are not visible, but the activity requires identifying and continuing the repeating unit).

Concept: A pattern repeats in a fixed order. To extend it, identify the repeating unit and draw the next elements following the same order.

Steps:
1. Look carefully at the shapes/objects already drawn.
2. Find the repeating unit (the group that keeps repeating).
3. Draw the next 2–3 elements following the same repeating unit.

Answer: Continue drawing the same repeating unit in the same order to extend the pattern.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure B.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Observe the shapes/objects already given.
2. Identify what comes first, second, third, etc., in the repeating group.
3. Draw the next elements in the same order.

Answer: Continue the pattern by drawing the next elements in the same repeating sequence.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure C.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Look at the pattern carefully.
2. Find the unit that repeats.
3. Draw the next 2–3 elements following the same order.

Answer: Extend the pattern by drawing the next elements in the same repeating order.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure D.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Observe the pattern carefully.
2. Identify the repeating unit.
3. Draw the next elements in the same sequence.

Answer: Continue the pattern by drawing the next elements following the same repeating unit.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure E.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Look at the shapes/objects in the pattern.
2. Find what repeats.
3. Draw the next 2–3 elements in the same order.

Answer: Extend the pattern by drawing the next elements in the same repeating sequence.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure F.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Observe the pattern carefully.
2. Identify the repeating unit.
3. Draw the next elements following the same order.

Answer: Continue the pattern by drawing the next elements in the same repeating sequence.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure G.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Look at the pattern carefully.
2. Find the unit that repeats.
3. Draw the next 2–3 elements in the same order.

Answer: Extend the pattern by drawing the next elements following the same repeating unit.

Given: A repeating pattern of shapes/objects is shown in figure H.

Concept: Identify the repeating unit in the pattern and continue it.

Steps:
1. Observe the pattern carefully.
2. Identify the repeating unit.
3. Draw the next elements in the same sequence.

Answer: Continue the pattern by drawing the next elements following the same repeating unit.

Given: A pattern made using fingerprints (thumb and finger impressions) with different colours is shown.

Concept: A pattern repeats in a fixed order. Here, fingerprints of different fingers or different colours are used in a repeating sequence.

Steps:
1. Dip your thumb or finger in paint/ink.
2. Press it on the paper to make an impression.
3. Use different fingers or colours in a repeating order (e.g., thumb – index finger – thumb – index finger, or red – blue – red – blue).
4. Continue the pattern across the given space.

Answer: Create a fingerprint pattern by repeating the same sequence of finger impressions and/or colours in the given space. (This is a hands-on activity; the child's own creative pattern is the answer.)
