Using this Easter pattern card set is simple. Each strip of Easter themed pattern has a missing image. Your child is to work out what image is missing and attach it to complete the pattern.
How to teach your child about patterns
There are many different ways we can teach our children about patterns. When it comes to patterns we can –
- see them
- hear them
- and make them with tools
A pattern progression might look like this:
- AAAA (green, green, green, green)
- ABAB (green, red, green, red, green)
- ABC (green, red, blue, green, red, blue)
- AABB (green, green, blue, blue, green, green, blue, blue)
- AAB (green, green blue, green, green, blue)
- ABB (green, blue, blue, green, blue, blue)
Of course, like anything, given the opportunity to learn about patterns will certainly help a child develop confidence and skill.
