Patterns in nature means that many times you can see the same shapes or designs in lots of different things in nature. For example, you can find circles in apples, oranges, and the sun in the sky. When the wind blows, you might see the same pattern of waves moving across the water. You can see patterns in clouds, the stripes on a bee or a tiger, in the seasons, and in the growth of plants and trees. Nature is full of patterns!
