Color Keys

Worksheet Description

Use the color key found on the top of this worksheet to color in the letter matrix in each row. The worksheet is an educational activity that uses autumn leaves to teach about patterns. At the top, there is a key assigning a letter (A, B, C, D, E, F) to different colored leaves. Below the key, there are several rows with sequences of these letters in square boxes, some of which are empty. The students’ task is to identify the pattern in each row and fill in the missing squares with the correct letter that corresponds to the color and type of leaf in the pattern.

This worksheet is designed to teach students pattern recognition by using a colorful, seasonal theme. It helps students to practice critical thinking as they determine which letter corresponds to the missing part of the sequence. By filling in the blanks, children apply their understanding of sequences and patterns, which are foundational concepts in early mathematics. The worksheet also incorporates a visual element of learning by associating letters with specific colors and shapes, reinforcing color and shape recognition.
