Students who can identify patterns have an easier time solving problems and making mathematical connections. There are patterns all around them in everyday life. A brick wall, the sidewalk, the beats in music, grandma's quilt, a soccer ball, a ballet dance, weather, the street; all contain patterns!
In fact, here is an example of a pattern from an old school Sesame Street Clip:
