Description
Gobble up some math this November: turkeys, pies, corn, and pumpkins take turns in rows that kids extend, name, and fix. Growing patterns and counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s stretch the thinking for first graders, while the simpler rows keep kindergarten on track. Print and go with 50 black and white Thanksgiving pages and a one page teacher guide. No prep for you: just print and go.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
The sheets go from easier to harder, so early learners and advanced learners can work in the same Thanksgiving theme at the same time.
Kindergarten and 1st grade students move from repeating patterns to naming them with letters, translating them, finding mistakes, growing patterns, and number patterns.
Name the Pattern and Find the Mistake give you a quick check of who understands the pattern rule.
MORE WAYS TO PLAY
► Set the table in a pattern: plate, napkin, plate, napkin.
► Turn the pattern into a movement game: gobble like a turkey, stomp like a pilgrim.
