About this worksheet
Snakes with A, B and C under each part. Kids color them using the key to reveal the pattern. Fewer uses AB patterns, and More starts with no colors filled in.
What kids practice
A pattern is something that repeats over and over, like red, blue, red, blue. Spotting and continuing patterns builds the thinking kids use later for counting by 2s, 5s and 10s, and for reading and math in general.
Watch for
- Copying the last thing instead of what comes next.
- Losing the pattern partway through a long row. Saying it out loud helps.
- Mixing up ABB and AAB. Point to each part as you say it.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full patterns guide for kindergarten.
