What is a pattern?

What is pattern in motion?

It is the way an objects moves based on its structure.
For example, a swing moves back and forth because the swing is hung from above.
A seesaw will move up and down because there is a fulcrum in the middle of a long beam.
A carousel will spin around in circles because it rotates around a stationary pole.

What is an example of a pattern in motion?

If you are on a swing and you are swinging forward, what would your next motion be?


If you are on a seesaw and you are up in the air, what would your next motion be?

Based on an object's structure, you can predict its motion.


If I drop a basketball on the gym floor, what will its motion look like?
