Pattern Worksheet worksheets
49 worksheets
Pattern worksheets build one of the earliest maths habits — seeing a rule and continuing it. A child reads a repeating sequence (AB, ABC, and on) and works out what comes next, completing the pattern with the right picture. Recognising and extending patterns underlies skip counting, multiplication, and the reasoning maths leans on later, and the picture format means a child can succeed before they read. Suited across K-3. Each pattern worksheet is a free printable PDF with a matching play-online version: the interactive one places the next item and checks the rule, the printable suits a maths centre or homework, and an answer key is included. The full set is available in all 11 languages we publish in.
How to use these worksheets
Print the PDF for a no-prep classroom or homework task, or open the play-online version on a tablet or whiteboard for instant feedback. Every worksheet includes an answer key, so children can self-check or work independently. Mix sheets across themes and grade levels to build a short Pattern Worksheet lesson, or send one home for extra practice.
