Zippert, Erica L.; Douglas, Ashli-Ann; Tian, Fang; Rittle-Johnson, Bethany – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Preschoolers' repeating patterning knowledge is predictive of their concurrent and later math and numeracy knowledge, but strong experimental evidence is needed to determine if these relations are causal. The purpose of the current study was to examine the causal effects of repeating patterning and numeracy tutoring on repeating patterning,…

McGarvey, Lynn M. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2012
Mathematics curricula in the early years emphasize exploring patterns as an important stepping stone to algebraic thinking. Key expectations for young children are for them to recognize and describe visual patterns in the environment. When children are asked to identify patterns, what criteria do they apply to make a decision and on what do they…
