Patterns repeat
A pattern is something that happens over and over again in the same order. Look at this row of shapes: ๐ด ๐ต ๐ด ๐ต ๐ด ๐ต. The red and blue circles take turns!
Patterns can use anything
Patterns can be colours, shapes, numbers, letters, or even sounds. Listen: clap-clap-stomp, clap-clap-stomp. That is a pattern too!
What comes next?
Once you spot the pattern, you can guess what comes next. In ๐ด ๐ต ๐ด ๐ต ๐ด ๐ต ___, the next one must be ๐ด (red) โ the pattern keeps going!
