Can you create a vertical structure?

Instructions:

1. Go outside to look for some interesting twigs that you can build a vertical pattern on.

2. Stand your twig up on playdough or clay.

3. Choose a material you could use to make a pattern with on the twigs (beads, cereal, pasta, etc.)

4. Have fun creating patterns!

InterACTions:

• Where could we go outside to search for twigs?

• Great idea! You are an explorer.

• What do you want to use to make patterns?

• Talk to me what you know about patterns.

• I’ve noticed patterns…

• Let’s count how many beads you have on each branch.

• What do you notice about the branches? What about their lengths?

• You are really thinking today!
