Mulligan, Joanne; Woolcott, Geoff; Mitchelmore, Michael; Busatto, Susan; Lai, Jennifer; Davis, Brent – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2020
As part of the "Connecting Mathematics Learning through Spatial Reasoning" project, a Spatial Reasoning Mathematics Program (SRMP) intervention was implemented with one cohort of 30 students in grades 3 through 4. The SRMP embedded transformation skills in learning sequences comprising repeating and growing patterns, 2D and 3D…

Layes, Smail; Kaddouri, Amel; Lalonde, Robert; Rebai, Mohamed – Journal of International Special Needs Education, 2021
We examined the effects of a morphological awareness (MA) training program on the enhancement of word and pseudo-word reading and phonological awareness in Arabic-speaking children with dyslexia. We compared two groups of children with dyslexia from Grade 3, an experimental group (n = 12; mean age = 112.4 months) with a control group (n = 13; mean…

Pasnak, Robert; Gagliano, Katrina; Righi, Matthew; Kidd, Julie K. – Grantee Submission, 2019
The effects of instructing kindergarten students (five-year-old in their first year of public school) on patterning were tested. Up to nine students in each class were randomly assigned to three groups in each of six classes, i.e., as many as three from a class in each group. One group received instruction on complex patterns similar to those…

Kidd, Julie K.; Gadzichowski, K. Marinka; Gallington, Deb A.; Lopez, Claudia; Pasnak, Robert – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2013
In early elementary school in most English-speaking countries children are taught "patterning," which involves learning repetitive patterns of colors or shapes (e.g., red, blue, green, red, blue, green). The present study was designed to test the effectiveness of patterning instruction when compared to equal amounts of instruction in…

Papic, Marina – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2007
Patterning is an essential skill in early mathematics learning, particularly in the development of spatial awareness, sequencing and ordering, comparison, and classification. This includes the ability to identify and describe attributes of objects and similarities and differences between them. Patterning is also integral to the development of…
