Six is here to let you know what a pattern really is. Can anything be a pattern? Not exactly. You can't just take a bunch of stuff, a random order's not enough. A pattern has a rule that checks with every step what happens next. If every step, the rule's the same, you've found the pattern, that's the game.
Look closely and color the same pattern that is on the die. Color three party hats to show a three pattern, four balloons to show a four pattern, and five stars to show a five pattern. Then, see if you can figure out the trickier cupcake pattern!
The Numberblocks have reached Pattern Palance. Use the shape color key to help you finish the picture. What patterns do you notice?
Snip, sort, and stick! Cut out these bright rainbow blocks and arrange them into any design you like. Can you make stripes, zigzags, or even a rainbow mosaic? It’s a hands-on way to explore colors, patterns, and creativity that is perfect for at-home fun or a classroom challenge!
To reach the golden double six, it will take some special tricks! You'll need to build the paths and so, go, go, domino! Cut out the dominoes and pick the right ones to finish building the paths. Where will you put the golden double six?
E and Magic E make a sound like EE and EA. Look at what they can do together! Add your E and Magic E tile to make some pals for Eve! Now see if you can read this: Eve can see what is for tea! Bits of tree and a fat green pea!
The article "How Social Jetlag Is Depriving Teens of Vital Sleep" from BBC's Science Focus explains how sleep needs and patterns change during adolescence, leading to social jetlag. This shift has many consequences, including an association with obesity and depression, but there are also recommendations for managing sleep schedules.
In Wildfires: A Growing Threat, host Radzi Chinyanganya highlights the devastating impact of wildfires around the globe, with a focus on Australia. The segment provides an in-depth look at the causes, local impact, and the global spread of wildfires, highlighting how changes in weather patterns, human activity, and environmental factors are exacerbating this crisis. The episode also covers how the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) contributes to the conditions that make wildfires more likely in regions like Australia. This video is excerpted from BBC’s My World, a program created for teenagers eager to learn more about the important stories shaping our world.
In The Heart and Lungs of the World, host Radzi Chinyanganya explains how the Amazon rainforest plays a critical role in regulating the Earth's climate by recycling water from the trees into the atmosphere. The Amazon takes in and pumps out water, which creates moisture that forms clouds and produces rain. With 400 billion trees cycling water, this process significantly influences global weather patterns, including rainfall in regions far from the rainforest itself, such as the United States’ Midwest.

In How Playing Ping Pong Boosts Your Brain Power, host Harith Iskander shows how this fast-paced game gives your brain a major workout. From making quick decisions to coordinating hand movements, table tennis engages different parts of the brain, including the motor cortex, cerebellum, and prefrontal cortex. As players react to the ball, plan their moves, and remember their opponent’s patterns, the hippocampus — the memory center of the brain — gets stronger. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Got Science?, a science magazine series that explores and explains science in everyday life.
