Pattern Blocks Shape Activities. Children love playing with colourful shapes and enjoy creative activities. Children also learn essential life skills such as hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, crossing the midline, planning, problem-solving, focus and concentration.
Pattern Blocks consist of 6 shapes - hexagon, trapezoid, rhombus, triangle, square and thin rhombus. Each block shape is a different colour. Pattern blocks fit together so well because their sizes are all fractionally related to each other. Activities encourage students to use these blocks to create geometric designs. Ultimately this leads to the exploration of fractional relationships.
