Growing Patterns- Represent Number Patterns as Geometric Patterns . Growing patterns have more complex relationships between the terms or parts of the pattern than repeating patterns. Growing patterns change from term to term in a predictable way. . Geometric or visual patterns assist students to see what is changing in a growing pattern. Growing patterns create multiples of the same combination of shapes in each part of the pattern (a fixed part) and usually have and aspect of the pattern that
