ABC Pattern with Feelings

Keep the ABC pattern going. On this Kindergarten worksheet a unit of three different feelings repeats in order — first, second, third — and the child completes the blanks by extending the rule. Reading a pattern of three distinct pictures, and holding their order in mind, builds richer patterning: the readiness skill of spotting the rule and carrying it forward. Familiar pictures like happy, sad and surprised faces keep it about the pattern.

The challenge of ABC is keeping three distinct pictures in their right places: first, then second, then third, then back to first. A child extends it by recalling the order, not by spotting a doubled element. Practising a three-in-order feelings sequence asks a young learner to track a whole trio at once — a fuller memory load than a doubled pattern.

Children who can hold the ABC trio in order get quicker at sequencing three different pictures, and finishing an ordered run feels rewarding, a win for a good memory for order. When this feels easy, try the pattern in abc pattern with farm animals, or abc pattern with furniture. You can also browse every pattern worksheet or the whole kindergarten collection — each sheet prints cleanly or plays online for free, and the more three-in-order patterns a child completes, the stronger their sense of sequence grows — for the days of the week, for counting, and for every ordered list they meet.
