Do you have pattern blocks? Chances are if you work with preschoolers or kindergartners in any capacity, you do!

Pattern blocks are commonly used for math activities and are great manipulatives. They are perfect for making your learning activities more hands-on.

Today I’m sharing a spring-themed pattern block printable that is great for math centers and independent work.

Importance of Pattern Blocks

I love pattern blocks because they are inexpensive, versatile, sturdy, easy for the child to hold, and encourage kids to create and build!

Pattern blocks are great for improving hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, concentration, shape recognition, visual discrimination skills, and more!

You can get all kinds of pattern blocks on Amazon here. Some come with boards or mats to build on.

The set I’m sharing today can be made into mats by printing them on card stock paper and laminating them. That will help them hold up for years!

Activity Directions

Begin by placing the pattern block sheet on the table with pattern block pieces.

Have the child match the pattern block pieces to the shapes on the printable.

If you’re finding the paper shifting or moving as you work, I suggest taping the paper to a table. It’s never fun to work on something and then have it ruined by bumping it!

As you create the spring pictures with the pattern blocks, make sure to point out how a shape, like a rhombus (diamond) below, can look different depending on how you turn it.
