Table of Contents Pattern A pages 5, 6, 7 *note to teachers: we never discuss pattern A, we just jump right into AB, ABB, ABC, and so on.

There actually is a pattern A as you will see! I showed art examples. In math it would be a string of

+0 +0 +0 +0 and so on, or –0 –0 –0 –0 –0 and so on

Pattern AB pages 8, 9,10

In math, this will later be like +1, +2, +1, +2, +1, +2, or +3, -2, +3, -2, +3, -2, and so on

Pattern ABC begins on page pages 11, 12, 13 In math, this will later be like +4, -1, +5, +4, -1, +5, +4, -1, +5

Pattern ABB, fish to color on 32 In math, this will later be like +1, +4, +4, +1, +4 ,+4, +1, +4, +4, +1, +4, +4, and so on

Common Core Standards Math Standards K and 1

Mathematical Practices 7. Look for and make use of structure. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Directions As each pattern is introduced, look for a child (or more) in the class wearing an example of the pattern

to help children see real world applications immediately.

Have 4 children come to the front of the room, 3 with the same pattern (and 1 with no pat-

tern to give everyone turns). Ask children to tell what pattern most are wearing.
