Let's solve each pattern one by one in the "Pattern Play" worksheet. The goal is to
identify the repeating pattern in each row and determine which shape comes next.
---
Row 1:
Sequence: Heart, Square, Heart, Square, Heart, Square
→ Alternating pattern:
Heart → Square → Heart → Square...
So the next shape should be
Heart.

Row 2:
Sequence: Crescent (moon), Star, Crescent, Star, Crescent, Star
→ Alternating pattern:
Crescent → Star → Crescent → Star...
Next should be
Crescent (moon).
✔ Answer: Crescent (bottom choice on the right)

Row 3:
Sequence: X, Circle, X, Circle, X, Circle
→ Alternating pattern:
X → Circle → X → Circle...
Next should be
X.
✔ Answer: X (top choice on the right)

Row 4:
Sequence: Oval, Diamond, Oval, Diamond, Oval, Diamond
→ Alternating pattern:
Oval → Diamond → Oval → Diamond...
Next should be
Oval.
✔ Answer: Oval (bottom choice on the right)

Row 5:
Sequence: Triangle, Spiral, Triangle, Spiral, Triangle, Spiral
→ Alternating pattern:
Triangle → Spiral → Triangle → Spiral...
Next should be
