Patterns, patterns, everywhere!!

We have started to discover patterns in our classroom and around the school.  The children have learned that patterns repeat. Some children have started to make their own patterns using blocks, shapes, bingo dabbers and stickers. We have also made action patterns, for example clap your hands, stomp your feet, clap your hands, stomp your feet..... Finding patterns, extending patterns and creating patterns are important skills!  Help your child find patterns around the house and have them show you what they know about patterns!  

This is a poem about patterning.

This is an AB pattern that Daniel made.


At this activity children can create a shape pattern or a colour pattern.

Ava created an AAB pattern using stickers.


Ashley discovered the pattern on her barrette matched the pattern on her shirt.
