I have drawn the first four patterns on separate isometric paper and the pattern number relates to its nth term, i.e. pattern 2 is the same as n = 2. In order to draw the shapes I have drawn them in separate layers, to make it easier to count the total number of squares in each pattern. When drawing each pattern, I added 1 square to each free side of the previous pattern. For instance, pattern 1 is a cube which has 6 sides; therefore I added 6 cubes to it.
