Patterning

We have been practicing patterning lately. :)

We began with a simple one yesterday.

I cut out some shapes to use over the next couple of weeks.

They caught on pretty quickly! I think that even some of the young 4 year olds are 

already ready for kindergarten.

 This guy worked independently on his paper.  He did a great job!

This is a good way to reinforce the shapes and colors as well.

While the younger ones are not ready to identify a pattern, they do enjoy the act of gluing shapes onto the paper.  It's fine motor skill development!  At her age, she is already learning to hold a crayon. CORRECTLY!  Never discount the simple act of gluing paper together. ♥

Smudge was "printer kitty" all morning.  

Happy Spring!  Yesterday was the first day of Spring, and boy did we celebrate!
