Abstract: As part of a larger project to explore the possibilities for children to learn mathematics in play, we examined how opening up a pattern block activity provided space for children to differentiate their interactions. The limiting nature of the original task would have stopped children from demonstrating what they could do and might explore. Using Bishop’s (1988) fundamental mathematical activities as our codes, analyzed video of eight children engaging in pattern block play revealed how they organically differentiated, pushing learning opportunities beyond the scope of the original lesson.
