PK.A.1.2
PK.A.1.2 Recognize, duplicate, and extend repeating patterns involving manipulatives, sound, movement, and other contexts.
In a Nutshell
This objective begins the process of identifying a pattern and distinguishing it from a random assortment of objects. Next, students will reproduce various types of patterns in different ways. Students will understand patterns are a concept found in objects, sounds, or even movements. The final stage involves students being able to continue a given pattern. These skills are practiced and carried over into kindergarten.

Teacher Actions
|
-
Build conceptual understanding by recognizing and identifying patterns around them.
-
Advance mathematical reasoning by copying patterns with manipulatives, sound, movement, etc.
- Make generalizations when continuing or extending a given pattern.
|
-
Promote problem-solving by providing opportunities for students to explore patterns in multiple ways.
-
Support productive struggle by allowing students to copy patterns, with clapping, movement, manipulatives, etc.
- Pose purposeful questions to encourage students to extend patterns.

Key Understandings
|
Misconceptions
|
-
A pattern is a repeating arrangement that follows a rule.
-
Once the rule is broken, the sequence is no longer a pattern.
|
-
A pattern is just a sequence.
-
The elements of a pattern unit can change within a pattern.
-
The order of elements in a pattern unit is interchangeable.
