Room 108 continues PATTERNING:

Creating Patterned Necklaces....The students of Room 108 have been working in a centre creating a patterned necklace as their culminating task for patterning. This was a great activity for not only patterning for the fine-motor development as the students were required to carefully thread the yarn into the hole of the button.

Our Success Criteria:
-I can pick out different shapes/colours
-I can find my core pattern
-I can repeat my pattern more than 1 time
-I can carefully thread the yarn through the buttons
-I can explain my pattern to my friends and teachers

-I can name my pattern using A, B, C, D

A book that we watched was "Beep, Beep, Vroom, Vroom" by Stuart J. Murphy. This book focuses on patterns and re-arranging the materials you have to create different patterns. The students were able to name all patterns using A, B, C, D. Try it at home!

We used cars to create our own patterns just like in the story! The students LOVED using the different materials to create their own repeating patterns.
