Patterns everywhere!

With our senior kindergartens, we’ve talked about what makes a pattern. We’ve come up with: it happens over and over again (it repeats), and based on that, we can guess what comes next. We talked about patterns in our clothes and looked at all our classmates clothing to discover a pattern.

We then went on a walk to see if we could find patterns in nature. We found lots!!!

Patterns in plants,

Patterns in flowers,

Patterns in a milkweed pod,

Patterns in leaves, 

More flowers,

Even bees have patterns!

Patterns in footprints,

Patterns on seeds,

A zigzag pattern on a dandelion!

We thought that the lines of the clouds going horizontally across the sky looked like a pattern!

They were excited to point out patterns in the bricks! Patterns really are everywhere! Please encourage your child to locate patterns around them.
