What comes next?

Make pattern worksheets. Each row shows a pattern of shapes that repeats: circle, square, circle, square. Your child says it out loud and draws the two shapes that come next, or circles the right shape. Start with AB patterns and go on to AAB, ABB and ABC.

How to make your worksheet

Shapes, not only colors

The pattern is made of different shapes, so it still works when the page is printed in black and white. In color each shape also has its own color.

Say it, clap it

Read each row as a chant. When the chant sounds right, your child has found the part that repeats.
