5)Take turns with your child creating “half- symmetric” shapes. Challenge each other to complete the missing halves.

6)Ask your child to make up a story using pattern blocks to create shapes. Your child can trace and color the shape on a piece of paper. Write the story below the shape. Hang the picture story in a special place.

7)Play a pattern block word game. Modify the rules of the game Hang-Man. Instead of drawing a limb whenever a player guesses a letter incorrectly, place a pattern block piece on the outline of a figure in this book. Players try to guess the word before the figure is complete.
