Today I am practising: copying a repeating two-part pattern
1
Copy circle, square, circle, square into four empty boxes.
2
Copy clap, tap, clap, tap by drawing a hand or making the motions.
3
Use two crayons to copy yellow, green, yellow, green.
4
Make an AB pattern with two kinds of safe household objects.
5
Point and say each part while you copy star, heart, star, heart.
6
Show an adult your pattern. Ask them to point to the repeating part.
- Name the whole repeat—'circle, square'—before the child begins copying.
- Cover the model only after the child can say the next two parts aloud.
- Use large, easy-to-see marks; copying the order matters more than drawing precision.
