Trains Colour and Pattern Work

This train-themed resource includes a variety of activities to support matching, colouring, and pattern for KS1 and EYFS learners.

Page 1: A train engine with 11 colourful carriages, each a different colour pattern. (You could duplicate, cut out and laminate the small cards for matching games).
Page 2: 12 different colour patterned engine cards. Duplicate, cut and match or children can use to build a train with their choice of colour carriages.
Page 3: Black-and-white version of the engine and carriages for children to colour freely or copy colours from previous pages.
You could task the children with making each carriage different using a set number of crayons. Children could share their creations at the end of the session to see if anyone else has an engine or carriage the same as them!
Page 4: Black-and-white version of the engines sheet for children to colour in. Page 5: A train scene colouring page, using an engine and two carriages.
