It is important that practitioners feel able to describe and identify pattern in order to support children’s growing awareness. Pattern may be identified and created physically, visually and through listening. It is also important that children are encouraged to explore pattern not simply in relation to mathematics but in every area of learning and development.

Offering natural materials such as stones and twigs in the sand area may promote pattern-making. Small-world play Natural, malleable and tactile materials clock appointment book squared paper for temperature chart calendar tape measure scales. Resources provided should always include relevant items to stimulate mathematical thinking and learning about time and measurement. A hospital corner for example could include: Role play ᭤ ᭤ ᭤ ᭤ ᭤ ᭤ Indoor examples helmets hose pipe traffic cones planks, tyres, crates, etc.

They wrote a song to the tune of London Bridge is Falling Down that incorporated a host of positional language and which they rehearsed over and over again – singing it as they created snail trails in the workshop area or described roadways and train tracks.
