Description
How to Teach Patterns
Patterns are everywhere a young child looks, from the stripes on a shirt to the beat of a song. Spotting what repeats is one of the first big ideas in early math, and it builds the thinking kids later use for counting, skip counting and number sense. This pictures patterns worksheet gives kindergarten students a bright, simple way to find a pattern, say it out loud and decide what comes next.
About This Worksheet
Students look at five rows of colorful pictures, such as apples and suns or balls, flowers and cupcakes. Each row shows the pattern repeating more than once, so there is only one right picture that comes next. Children name the pattern, find the part that repeats, and then draw the next picture in the dotted box at the end of the row. The rows mix AB, ABC, AAB and ABB patterns, so kids have to look closely instead of guessing. The answer key on page two shows the correct picture for every box.
What’s Included
- One kindergarten patterns worksheet with five picture pattern rows
- AB, ABC, AAB and ABB patterns using apples, suns, balls, flowers and cupcakes
- A large dotted box in every row for drawing the next picture
- A full answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it teaches children to find the core of a pattern, the small group of pictures that repeats. Second, it builds careful looking and reasoning, because the AAB and ABB rows cannot be solved by simply copying the first picture without checking the rest of the row. Third, drawing the answer keeps young learners active and lets them show their thinking in a way that does not depend on reading or writing.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting, read one row aloud together, like “apple, sun, apple, sun,” and let your child clap on each picture. Afterward, ask kids to build the same patterns with blocks, crayons or snacks, then invent a brand-new pattern of their own. This pictures patterns worksheet also works well as a math center, a morning warm-up or a quick check during a unit on patterns.
