Preschool Practice Page: Make A Pattern, AB

8/17/2014

For today's upload, I'm sharing with you this introduction to making AB patterns. This AB pattern is very simple and very basic which is great for those just starting out learning about patterns. An AB pattern is simply alternating colors or shapes or really anything. Every other object is the same.

Recognizing and repeating patterns are an important part of a child's development. Patterns are all around, and when you encourage your child to recognize patterns, you are strengthening their math skills. 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:

Now that you see how important patterns are, here is today's FREE Preschool Printable. Simply click on the image to download the PDF version.

Preschool Printables: Make A Pattern, AB. This introductory practice page about making patterns in a great addition to your math lesson. Patterns exist in everyday life and students who can recognize patterns are better at solving problems.

Remember that I will be adding a new Handwriting Practice Page throughout the next few weeks. Check back often to find your favorites including shapes, colors, numbers and more alphabet. I am also working on some more pattern pages as well.

I am on an amazing adventure traveling the world with Jesus. After 7 years of teaching preschool in Alabama, God called me to the mission field in Mexico full time. I led short-term missions trips for 6 years and the Lord opened the door for me to mix both of my passions, missions and teaching. I am now the director of Little Builders Preschool and we will soon be opening a full International K-12 school. The current students are missionary kids but will be open to the local community in the future.

Join me on my adventure and learn what I learn.

As a full-time missionary, I do not receive a traditional pay check. I rely on the generous support of friends, family & people like you. As any teacher does, much of what we use in our school is purchased by me out of my own personal funds. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our ministry and help our students reach their potential in education.
