I have created a great little monster center for my class. They love these little monster images and they are learning so much while playing with them. You can download a free preview of this set on teacherspayteachers.com. There is a link on the right side of the page that will take you directly to my store. I love to start out teaching my patterns to the kids on the carpet in a large group and then having self practice at the table. I use a digital camera with a small name tag to capture each students progress. This makes it so that I only have to print, laminate an cut one set and can use it over and over. I have also prined this set in black and white. The monsters are different enough to tell the difference and we can work on cutting skills. With this set I also included colors and intended this set for beginner pattern students. I have several other pattern sets that would be suitable for students up to 2nd grade depending on level.
