To work out the pattern you have to add the first and last numbers together 1+1=2, 1+2=3, 3+5=8. I also learnt that you can find spirals in nature like flowers, broccoli, and many more also we learnt to make Eis.

In room 24 we learnt about Tivaevae patterns. I discovered that Tivaevae or Tivaivai (Cook Islands Māori: Tivaevae) in the Cook Islands, is French Polynesia and is a form of artistic quilting traditionally done by Polynesian women. We used paper.

In room 22 we made tessellations and it was about making a unique pattern with the shapes but also trying to focus to keep our shapes straight.
