copy a pattern

Milestone Idea Card
‘I can copy a simple pattern’

You can send your child to collect leaves and twigs from the
garden.

Once they have collected the items ask them to make a pattern
with these objects.

Patterns can be made involving colours, shapes and also numbers.
You could build a tower using Lego, or use colour buttons.
Can your child create their own pattern?
This is a fun way to use “pattern language” such as again and
next.
