• Identifies and makes straight lines by folding, straight edged objects, stretched strings and draws free hand and with a ruler.
• Draws horizontal, vertical and slant lines (free hand).
• Distinguishes between straight and curved lines.
• Identifies objects by observing their shadows.
9. PATTERNS
• Observes and extends patterns in sequence of shapes and numbers.
• Searches for patterns in different ways of splitting a number.
• Creates block patterns by stamping thumbprints, leaf prints, vegetable prints, etc.
• Creates patterns of regular shapes by stamping.
