Dr. Seuss Patterning Booklet This is a booklet that Students can practice their pattern skills. Each booklet is double sided so you will just place it into the copy machine and run the amount of books you will need. Cut the finished product in half and you will have two books. I have the booklets premade and place them in a math center. I create an example for students to use while they are in the center. Enjoy!
