Learning Through Play

Pretty Patterns

6/6/2020

0 Comments

 
This week my kids wanted to use the beads.  I asked them if they could make a bracelet with a pattern.  I made them a little simple pattern chart and asked if they could make any of the patterns.  Before we got started my girls started organizing their beads in the muffin containers.  We talked about how you can sort your beads by attribute such as colour, size and shape.  We examined what attributes in the patterns changed after they had made their creations.  We also looked at the smallest part of the pattern and I reminded them that this was called the pattern core.  The pattern core is like a little stamp.  If you were to stamp this part of the pattern over and over again to make it repeat you would have your pattern.

    Play-based Learning

    Following a child's interest is the most engaging way to extend on their learning. Here I have posted some every day activities that can draw from various strands across different age groups.  Remember each child has different interests so the key to working with your child is to follow their lead and ask the right questions.
