With our patterns created, we then brainstormed some ideas of what kinds of math thinking we would need to include in our descriptions.
When we created our patterns with real blocks, we were able to then take a picture of our pattern with our ipads and then download it to educreations to then be able to draw and explain our thinking. We were able to take pictures of our paper patterns and explain our patterns using the virtual whiteboard and voice recording. Some of us used audacity on the dells to record our thinking as well.
We took our initial ideas of what we knew about patterns and added to our wallwisher wall. We also used the 5 key questions to ask each other what we were learning and how we knew we were doing well.
Here's a couple of examples:
