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!
Ready for lift-off? Roll a die and play a number coloring game. Here's how it works:
- Find a friend, a die. and coloring pencils. Choose who will be player 1 and who will be player 2.
- Take it in turns to throw the die. Color the parts of the picture that contain the number you roll (use the color key to help you). If they’re already colored in, miss a turn.
- The first player to color their picture is the winner!
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.

Let's all count to 20 in lots of different ways. Can you write and count out loud to 20 using the fingers and toes? Try it on your own fingers and toes! Next, can you count up to 20 in steps of two? How about four? Five?
In The Formation of the Gobi Desert, narrator Sir David Attenborough explores the Gobi Desert and its origin. The Himalayas force air upwards, creating rainfall. When the air reaches the other side of the mountains, it is drier. This weather pattern formed the Gobi Desert. This video is excerpted from BBC's Planet Earth, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
