Provide the children with pattern blocks and homemade pattern block cards. To make the cards, trace the shape of a pattern block in three different orientations (for example, a triangle pointing up, down and to the side). You can put several shapes on one card. The children match the various shapes, turning them in different directions to make them fit. Talk about the shapes by name with the children, saying, “Those are all triangles.”
