Description
What It Is:
This is a printable worksheet titled 'What Comes Next?' that focuses on identifying and extending visual patterns. The worksheet presents four rows of patterns, each made up of different dessert items: donuts, round chocolate candies, and cupcakes. Each row displays a repeating pattern, and the student is prompted to circle the correct image from a pair of options that continues the pattern.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is most suitable for Pre-K and Kindergarten students. The patterns are relatively simple, using alternating images, which is appropriate for introducing basic pattern recognition skills to young learners.
Why Use It:
This worksheet helps develop visual discrimination skills, pattern recognition abilities, and logical thinking. It reinforces the concept of repeating sequences and encourages students to predict what comes next in a given pattern. It also uses engaging and familiar imagery (desserts) to maintain student interest.
How to Use It:
Instruct the student to observe each row of dessert images carefully. Explain that they need to identify the repeating pattern in each row. Then, ask them to circle the one dessert image from the two options provided at the end of the row that correctly continues the pattern.
Target Users:
The target users are preschool and kindergarten-aged children who are learning about patterns and sequencing. It is also suitable for students who need extra practice with visual discrimination and early math skills.
