Patterns and Sequences in Mathematics

The video tutorial covers problem-solving with shape patterns, using strategies like modeling with objects and identifying patterns in everyday life. It explains tessellations, missing shapes, and number patterns, providing examples like a quilt design and a bead necklace. The lesson emphasizes understanding patterns through repetition and rules, preparing students for future lessons on angles.
