Class 4 Maths - HARYANA
Pattern Around Us
The chapter 'Pattern Around Us' in Class 4 Mathematics helps students discover, understand, and create repeating and growing sequences found in daily life, such as in floor tiles, clothing designs, leaves, and numbers. In the Haryana Board (BSEH) curriculum, this chapter builds strong foundational observation and logical thinking skills. Students learn to identify the core rule of a pattern and extend it correctly. It matters significantly for board exams as it tests analytical thinking, visual memory, and number sense through fun, scoring questions that frequently appear in both objective and short-answer formats.

Repeating Patterns
A sequence of shapes, colors, or numbers that repeats itself in the exact same order over and over again.
Growing Patterns
A sequence where the items get larger or increase according to a specific rule, such as adding a fixed number each time.
Number Patterns
A sequence of numbers arranged according to a mathematical rule, like skip counting by 2s, 5s, or 10s.
Shape and Tiling Patterns
Arranging geometric shapes together to cover a surface completely without any gaps or overlaps, often seen in floor tiles.
Finding the Rule
The underlying logic or pattern rule that tells us what comes next in a given sequence of shapes or numbers.

Board Exam Info
In the Haryana (BSEH) Class 4 Mathematics exams, this chapter typically carries about 4 to 6 marks. Common question types include completing the missing numbers in a sequence, drawing the next shape in a repeating pattern, identifying the core rule of a given pattern, and creating custom patterns using dots or basic geometric shapes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pattern in Class 4 Mathematics?
A pattern is a regular arrangement of shapes, numbers, or designs that follow a specific rule and repeat or grow in a predictable way.
How do I find the missing number in a number pattern?
First, look at the first few numbers to find the difference or rule (like adding 3 or multiplying by 2), then apply that same rule to find the missing number.
Can patterns be made using letters of the alphabet?
Yes! Patterns can be made using letters, such as AB, AB, AB or A, BB, CCC, following a logical sequence.
