Welcome to Patterns! – Greet the class: Good morning! – Today’s topic: Learning about patterns – Ask the class: What is a pattern? – Explain patterns with examples – A pattern is a repeating design or sequence, like red, blue, red, blue | Begin the class with a warm and enthusiastic greeting to set a positive tone. Introduce the concept of patterns, which are fundamental in math and observable in the world around us. Encourage the children to think about patterns they have seen in their daily lives. After posing the question about what a pattern is, give them time to think and respond. Use simple and clear examples, such as alternating colors, shapes, or sizes, to illustrate the concept of a pattern. This will help them recognize and understand patterns in a fun and engaging way. Prepare to show visual examples and have some physical objects ready for a hands-on activity to reinforce the concept.
Exploring Patterns – Understanding patterns – A pattern repeats in a sequence – Patterns all around us – Find patterns in leaves, rhythms, or paintings – Examples of patterns – We’ll see stripes, colors, and shapes that repeat – Recognizing patterns – Practice spotting and continuing patterns | Introduce the concept of patterns to the students by explaining that a pattern is a sequence of things that repeat in a specific order. Show them that patterns are not just in math but are a part of our everyday lives, such as the arrangement of leaves on a plant or the repeating chorus in a song. Use visual aids to show examples of simple patterns using colors, shapes, and objects. Encourage the children to observe and recognize these patterns and prepare them for an activity where they will identify and extend patterns on their own.
Let’s Find Patterns! – Patterns with shapes and colors – Like red, blue, red, blue or circle, square, circle. – Describing patterns – What comes after the blue square? – Guessing the next part – If we see apple, banana, apple, what’s next? – Practice time! | This slide introduces the concept of patterns to Kindergarten students, using simple and relatable examples. Start by explaining that patterns are everywhere and can be made with different things like shapes, colors, or objects. Encourage the students to observe patterns in their environment. Use visual aids to show patterns and ask the students to describe them and predict what comes next. For the practice activity, present a series of patterns and let the students guess the next element. This could be done with physical objects or pictures. The goal is to make them familiar with the idea of sequences and help them recognize and extend patterns.
Creating Our Own Patterns – It’s your turn to make a pattern – Use blocks, stickers, or ourselves – Choose colors or shapes to start – Patterns repeat – what’s next? – If we start with red, blue, red, what comes after? – Show and explain your pattern – Share your pattern with the class | This slide is designed to encourage active participation from the students in creating their own patterns. Provide a variety of materials like blocks and stickers, and allow them to use their own movements as well. Remind them that patterns are all about repetition and they need to think ahead about what will come next. For example, if they start with a red block, then a blue one, and another red, they should figure out that a blue block comes next. After creating their patterns, each student should have the opportunity to present and explain their pattern to the class. This activity will help reinforce their understanding of patterns and also develop their ability to predict and extend patterns. It’s a hands-on activity that will make learning about patterns fun and memorable.
Completing Patterns – Patterns can be unfinished – Use knowledge to complete patterns – Recognize the sequence and predict the next part – Let’s complete patterns together – We will work as a class to finish patterns – Practice makes perfect | This slide introduces the concept of completing patterns to Kindergarten students. Begin by explaining that sometimes patterns are like puzzles that need to be finished. Encourage the children to use what they know about patterns to figure out what comes next. During the activity, guide them through several examples as a class, helping them recognize and extend the pattern. For instance, if the pattern is red, blue, red, blue, ask the students what they think the next color should be. Provide ample practice with different types of patterns, such as shapes, colors, and sizes, to reinforce the concept. The goal is to build their confidence in identifying and completing patterns independently.
Pattern Games: What Comes Next? – Patterns are like puzzles – Guess the next item in a pattern – If we see apple, banana, apple, what’s next? – Put on your thinking caps – We’ll play and learn together – It’s fun to predict and complete patterns | This slide introduces the concept of patterns to Kindergarten students in a playful and engaging way. Emphasize that patterns are all around us and they are like puzzles that we can solve. Encourage the children to observe the sequence and use their critical thinking to guess what comes next. Provide simple examples like alternating fruit or colors to illustrate the concept. During the activity, guide them through several rounds of pattern games, ensuring each child has a chance to participate. Offer praise for effort and correct answers to foster a positive learning environment. The goal is to make learning about patterns an interactive and enjoyable experience for the students.
Class Activity: Pattern Parade – Join the Pattern Parade – Take turns adding to our pattern – Use colorful scarves for patterns – We’ll use red, blue, and yellow scarves – Create a pattern as a class – We might make a pattern like red, blue, red, blue | This activity is designed to help Kindergarten students recognize and create patterns, a fundamental math skill. Each student will participate in creating a pattern by adding a scarf in sequence. Before starting, explain what a pattern is and show an example using the scarves. Demonstrate a simple AB pattern (e.g., red, blue, red, blue) and then let each child add to it. Have a variety of scarf colors available to allow for different patterns. Possible variations for different students could include creating an ABC pattern (e.g., red, blue, yellow, red, blue, yellow) or an ABB pattern (e.g., red, blue, blue, red, blue, blue). The goal is to make the activity fun and interactive while reinforcing the concept of patterns.
Review and Goodbye: Patterns – Congratulations on learning patterns! – What is a pattern? Can you tell? – A pattern is a repeating design or rule. – Patterns are all around us! – Keep finding patterns everywhere! | This slide is meant to wrap up the lesson on patterns and reinforce the day’s learning. Start by praising the students for their hard work. Ask the class if anyone can explain what a pattern is, to assess their understanding. Remind them that patterns are not just in the classroom but are a part of the world around them, in nature, in art, in music, and even in their daily routines. Encourage them to observe and recognize patterns in their environment, which will help solidify their understanding of the concept. This also prepares them for more complex pattern recognition in future lessons.
