PATTERNING IDEAS:

Kindergartners love patterns. Or should I say "pat-ter-ens." They're super fun! But what they don't know is that they are an essential building block in their understanding about numbers. What starts out in kindergarten as making pretty designs with pattern blocks eventually leads to skip counting, repeated addition (and therefore multiplication and division), algebraic reasoning, and beyond! So it's important that we provide them with a solid foundation.

Here's a series of color pattern cards where students use manipulatives (pom-poms, color tiles, bear counters, Unifix cubes, etc.) to make, extend, or fill-in the pattern pictured.

CUISENAIRE RODS:

Cuisenaire rods are mathematics learning aids for students that provide a hands-on elementary school way to explore mathematics and learn mathematical concepts, such as the four basic arithmetical operations, working with fractions and finding divisors.
