- PDF
Description
These calendar numbers do more than add a dose of cuteness to your calendar wall! These adorable cards teach counting, number identification, number sense, and most uniquely – patterning!
Patterning is an important skill!
Learning to recognize patterns helps children:
•Make predictions based on observations
•Prepare for learning complex number concepts
•See relationships between two or more things
•Develop generalizations
The pattern cards in this pack start out super simple. August has no pattern at all.
Going forward, a new pattern is introduced each month. The early patterns have colored backgrounds to cue the pattern recognition. This support is later removed.
My nuggets LOVE predicting what picture will be next in the pattern!
Each number is approximately 2.75" square.
