Like detectives on a case, we can make amazing discoveries by becoming pattern smart. See the World Through Patterns shows how. It uses stories and exercises to engage readers in learning what patterns are and how diverse they can be. It also brings to life the many things explorers, scientists, and yes, students can learn by closely observing patterns.
The book's six chapters cover different pattern types and feature firsthand interviews about the role that pattern recognition plays in real-life breakthroughs. It dives deep into five pattern recognition "smarts" in particular: number smart, people smart, nature smart, word smart, and picture smart.
Readers can also try their hands at pattern - seeking in exercises that let them discover and interpret patterns for themselves. The e-book is designed in vibrant color so they can clearly see the many pattern examples included. Teachers will like the way this resource reinforces STEM thinking and makes connections to the practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts. Students will like the connection to actual investigations. Who knew that no one could locate the wreckage of the Titanic until an oceanographer noticed the patterns in sea currents and the ship's debris field? As the author tells readers on the case: "Pay attention to what your brain is trying to tell you! Discovery is within reach of anyone who is curious about the world around them."
