Shapes Pattern Practice #1 worksheet for identifying and completing shape sequences.

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given 5 patterns, each with a sequence of shapes. The last box in each row is empty — we need to figure out which shape comes next based on the pattern.

At the bottom, there’s a “cut-out” section with these shapes:
- Circle
- Triangle
- Crescent moon
- Heart
- Square
- Diamond

We’ll go one row at a time.

---

Row 1:
Heart, Diamond, Heart, Diamond, Heart, Diamond → ?

This is alternating: Heart, Diamond, Heart, Diamond...

So after Diamond (the 6th shape), the next should be Heart.

✔ Pattern: A-B-A-B-A-B → Next is A (Heart)

---

Row 2:
Square, Triangle, Square, Triangle, Square, Triangle → ?

Again, alternating: Square, Triangle, Square, Triangle...

After Triangle (6th), next is Square.

✔ Pattern: A-B-A-B-A-B → Next is A (Square)

---

Row 3:
Rectangle, Rectangle, Moon, Rectangle, Rectangle → ?

Look closely: Two rectangles, then a moon, then two rectangles again.

So it’s like: [Rect, Rect, Moon] repeated? But we only have 5 so far.

Positions:
1. Rect
2. Rect
3. Moon
4. Rect
5. Rect
→ So position 6 should be Moon, to complete the group of three.

✔ Pattern: A-A-B-A-A-B → Next is B (Moon)

---

Row 4:
Circle, Diamond, Diamond, Circle, Diamond, Diamond → ?

Pattern: Circle, then two Diamonds, then Circle, then two Diamonds...

So it’s: A-B-B-A-B-B → Next should be Circle

✔ After two diamonds, circle starts the next group.

---

Row 5:
Triangle, Heart, Hexagon, Triangle, Heart, Hexagon → ?

This repeats every 3: Triangle, Heart, Hexagon

Positions:
1. Triangle
2. Heart
3. Hexagon
4. Triangle
5. Heart
6. Hexagon
→ So position 7 should start over: Triangle

✔ Pattern: A-B-C-A-B-C → Next is A (Triangle)

---

Now let’s list what goes in each blank:

1. Heart
2. Square
3. Moon
4. Circle
5. Triangle

These all match the cut-out shapes at the bottom.

Final Answer:
1. Heart
2. Square
3. Moon
4. Circle
5. Triangle
