00:00of figuring out some numbers.
00:02And art is an excellent way of expressing yourself.
00:07Oh, I like this sculpture.
00:09Personally, I prefer this painting.
00:12Art is all about finding different ways of looking at things.
00:16Take my new exhibit, for example, the pattern wall.
00:21Oh!
00:23Oh!
00:25Whatever shape you make with your blocks,
00:27the pattern wall will copy.
00:29Oh!
00:31Oh!
00:33Not bad.
00:35May I?
00:36Help yourself.
00:38A surprised cow.
00:40But now let's loosen up those blocks
00:42and make some crazy shapes!
00:46Oh!
00:47Oh!
00:48Oh!
00:49Oh!
00:50Oh!
00:51Oh!
00:52Oh!
00:53Oh!
00:54Oh!
00:55Oh!
00:56Oh!
00:57Ha-ha!
00:59Oh!
01:00Now, let's find a clean bit of wall
01:03and see what we can do.
01:05Octoblock, tessellate.
01:061, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
01:09Tessellate!
01:10Ooh!
01:11Let's give it a try.
01:12Square.
01:13Cross.
01:14Square.
01:15Cross.
01:16Square.
01:17Cross.
01:18Square.
01:19Cross.
01:20Right.
01:21Let's explore some patterns.
01:22You're both making a 10s and 1s pattern at the moment.
01:25Like this.
01:26That's a good first step. It helps you see where you fit in the pattern of counting numbers.
01:32Oh yes! I'm between 26 and 28. And I'm underneath 8 and 18.
01:39Now see what shapes your blocks can make. Rectangles are the simplest.
01:44Look! My 21 blocks can make 7 lots of 3.
01:49See! See! See! See! Me! Me! Me!
01:53So, I fit the pattern of the family of 3s. Between 18 and 24.
02:00Oh! I can fit that pattern too. I'm 3 more than 24.
02:07Well, I'm part of the family of 2s, 4s, 7s and 14s too.
02:12Oh! Lots of rectangles. Now me, I'm part of the family of squares.
02:19Maybe we're squares 27.
02:22Nope. Guess not. Although I can make 3 square 9s. And each 9 is 3 3s.
02:30We're the 3 3 3s. Woohoo!
02:34Oh! There are lots of patterns to explore. Like my favourite, step shapes.
02:401, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
02:45Oh! Let me try.
02:47Yes! I'm 7 blocks bigger than you 21. So I can make a step shape too.
02:531, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and lucky rainbow 7.
03:00So many patterns to play with. Oh! I figured myself out.
03:06I'm 28 and I'm a pattern pioneer.
03:10Square with a hole. Chalky cross. Tower with windows. Get in!
03:17Hello 27. Looking for something?
03:20Yes. I'm just not sure what. There's something I'm missing.
03:24Art is all about exploring new directions.
03:29Oh! New directions. That's it!
03:343 lots of 3 3s can make 3 square 9s.
03:39And if you put us together in a new direction, we make a cube.
03:45I figured myself out.
03:47I'm 27 and I'm a cube.
03:513 by 3 by 3. Whee!
03:55Making patterns is so much fun.
