Discovering the ‘Unit of Repeat’

Bula Vinaka! 🇫🇯✨

In maths, we learned all about the ‘Unit of Repeat’—the specific combination of shapes or lines that repeats over and over again to create a complete pattern.

Here is how we put our learning into action:

  1. Explore: We looked closely at Fijian masi patterns and identified the geometric shapes hiding inside them.
  2. Design: Using whiteboard markers and mini whiteboards, we selected our own “unit of repeat” (for example: triangle, diamond, stripe).
  3. Repeat: Working carefully, we repeated our unit to build our masi inspired designs.

Using whiteboards allowed us to experiment freely, test out different repeating sequences, and make adjustments as we refined our mathematical patterns!
