Free Patterns Worksheets for Kids
Pattern sheets ask what comes next in a repeating sequence — an early, hands-on introduction to the kind of thinking algebra eventually formalizes.
Where to start
Begin with AB and say the repeating unit out loud. When that feels easy, try AAB, ABB, then ABC; use claps or household objects to build the same pattern off the page.
