Patterns and predictions

This month in class we have been learning about patterns in science. Your child should be able to observe and identify patterns including seasons, growth, day and night. They should also be able to make a prediction on what they think will happen next. I have included some Internet sites that you and your child can explore together. All of these sites will help your child learn about patterns in seasons, growth, day and night.
The first pattern in science your child has been learning is seasons. On this site you can put puzzles together, printout coloring pages, find easy crafts and play games that teach about spring, summer, fall and winter. Know matter what season it is you can learn and have fun.

Next we looked at the patterns in growth. On this site you and your child can learn the parts of a flower, life cycle of a flowering plant, life cycle of a frog and a human being. You can identify patterns in growth and predict which one goes next. Do you know all the parts of a flower?

Last we observed and identified patterns in day and night. With this site you will reinforce your child's learning of what makes night and day. You will also see the different phases of the moon. Do you know what a waxing gibbous is? Your child does!!

I hope you and your child had fun and learn together. Please join me next month when we will be looking at the parts of plants and animals.
