Patterns!

"Patterns have their own identity. They can be ornate and fancy, or plain and simple, regular or irregular, symmetrical or asymmetrical, sequenced or alternating." (Schirrmacher & Fox, 2009, Pg. 142) Pattern is based on repetition. It involves recurring shapes or objects. In this case, it would be normal bold normal bold. 

I love patterns! Maybe because I am a very rigid person. I like things that repeat itself. I am constantly looking for patterns. However, there are many patterns around us that is so common that we don't realize. Once I knew we have to write a blog on patterns, I immediately look for patterns and took pictures of it. First thing in the morning, I found the bricks outside of my house. Then it was tiles on the floor at where I was eating lunch. Next is the keyboard and dividers at the library. I found many patterns that look so cool.

We are surrounded by patterns, we just don't notice it. The keyboard that we are typing is a pattern. I like spotting patterns cause of the repetitiveness. Children are often fascinated by patterns. They found them amazingly attractive. Sometimes children try to figure out where does it start and where does it end. It is amazing to watch children do and think about patterns.
