Prehistoric Patterns & Cards PRINTABLE
ABOUT
TERMS & CONDITIONS
Teach your little ones about patterns with this Prehistoric Patterns printable activity!
Prehistoric Patterns Printable —
- 4 pages, in colour
- cut out the 6 prehistoric cards with dino & shell names
- use activity as a full sheet or cut along the bold lines to create 10 pattern cards & 1 cover card
Benefits of Teaching Patterns:
- children learn to make predictions & logical connections
- begin to understand rhythm & repetition; what comes next
- learn reasoning skills — ie. after a bath, you put on clean clothes or pajamas
Tip: To help your child to learn about patterns, show them differences between each dinosaur in each pattern card (such as colour) to help them to recognize 'what comes next'.
Think about the language you use with children when describing and creating patterns. Use words like before, after, next, start, finish, middle, between, end, same, different, again and repeat.
