Pattern Blocks

Preschool is the perfect time to introduce children to pattern blocks! If you are unfamiliar with pattern blocks, basically they are a set of plastic learning manipulatives that come in 6 different shapes: hexagon, trapezoid, square, triangle, parallelogram and rhombus, each with a different color.

Pattern Block Mats:

The pattern blocks are used to make….you guessed it….patterns! But that is not all they are good for. We use our pattern block mats for teaching symmetry, reflection, and so much more! They are super versatile and can be used alongside Pattern Block Mats to aid in learning. In fact, we have created a huge variety of pattern block mats, and follow-up activity pages to teach children a variety of different skills:

Pattern Block Worksheets:

These universal activity pages coordinate with ANY of our thematic pattern block mats and teach children important skills such as counting,  graphing, tally marks, addition, subtraction, inequalities, number words, writing, shape identification, ordinal number words, and sequencing.  Each sheet can be paired with any of the pattern block mats which cover alphabet, numbers, animals, transportation, seasons, and holidays.  With this set you’ll have no-prep math learning centers for the entire year!
