Readers will also discover how they can use patterns to skip count, add, and even multiply, before trying their hand at creating a pattern of their own.TEDDY BEAR PATTERNS is a worthwhile addition to the classroom, especially those that already use bear counters or other manipulatives as learning tools. Back matter provides a summary of the concepts introduced in the book.
