One of the fun things we worked on in Mathematics this past week was Pattern Centers. My firsties had so much fun rotating between stations, and loved the 'hands-on' activities. We have worked on patterns for the past while and had been observing and making connections to patterns found in our own environment, so the Pattern Centers were a wonderful opportunity for students to be engaged and have fun, while demonstrating their overall understanding of the mathematical concept. I had 6 different pattern stations, including a bingo dabber pattern station, a sticker pattern station, a stamping pattern station, an unifix cube pattern station, a coloured tile pattern station, and a shape pattern station. I ran the Pattern Centers over several days, as they can be time consuming to complete. I have included several pictures of student work samples, as well as copies of my Pattern Center documents that you are more than welcome to help yourself to. I would love to hear comments on successful math centers that you have recently run in your own classroom!
Have a great week!
