The learning connection
By using tangible objects, children engage in embodied cognition, linking visual patterns with physical manipulation. This hands-on approach helps solidify their understanding of patterns, making abstract concepts more concrete.
Try it with your learner
1. Gather 12 colorful buttons, beads, or any small objects from home. 2. Arrange 6 of them in a simple pattern (e.g., red, blue, red, blue). 3. Ask your child to identify and continue the pattern with the remaining objects. 4. Create a new pattern together, introducing different colors or shapes. 5. Challenge each other to create a pattern and have the other guess the next in line. 6. Discuss which patterns were easiest or most challenging to extend.
