This activity introduces patterns by building repeating sequences with blocks or beads.

We’ll cover:

• Simple patterns: red-blue-red-blue.

• Extension patterns: adding shapes and numbers.

• Critical thinking: predicting what comes next.

• Creative play: inventing original sequences.

Benefits:

• Develops logic and sequencing.

• Encourages creativity in problem-solving.

• Makes abstract math visual and fun.

By building and predicting patterns, children understand structure, a key skill for advanced math concepts.
