Included are 2 boards, one labelled ‘big’ and one labelled ‘small’ and 14 pictures to cut and stick onto the appropriate board.

Repeating patterns with colours and shapes for children to finish by cutting and sticking the correct shapes. Why do you need this? This activity helps children develop their pattern recognition skills by identifying and extending simple repeating patterns. Recognising patterns is an important early maths skill that lays the foundation for more complex mathematical concepts later on. Completing repeating patterns requires children to use critical thinking skills as they analyse the sequence of colours and shapes and predict the next element in the pattern. It encourages them to think logically and sequentially. How and when might you use this? This activity could be used in a variety of ways: · Maths lessons focused on repeating patterns · Small group instruction to provide targeted support · Independent work stations This can be used as a one off activity or for continued use I would recommend laminating this resource and using Velcro to move the jigsaw pieces around.
