1) Ask your child to make up his or her own space
asteroid belt. Build asteroids with pattern blocks
similar to those found on pages 4 and 5.
2) Create the same shapes using different pattern
block pieces. After your child has completed
pages 6, 7, and 8, explore which pieces can be
substituted for others.
For example, ask your child, “How many red
pieces make up a yellow piece? (2) How many
green pieces make up a red piece? (3) Can you
combine green and red pieces to make a yellow
piece? (Yes)”
3) Have your child build different shapes for each
object on pages 9 through 15.
4) Create more symmetric shapes. Ask your child to
show you the line of symmetry.
