A fun manipulative to teach whole and half step patterns!


While browsing online one night I came across these Foamies in the shape of footprints. I instantly thought of a way to use them to teach and reinforce whole and half step patterns.
All I did was write "W" and "H" on each one with a black Sharpie. The foamies are very inexpensive and can be found here http://www.craftsuppliesforless.com/kidscraftsupplies_foamies1.html
You will need to scroll down to find the footprints, I used the Large size and would recommend using that size and not the smaller size.

  1. Great idea! If there are enough of 2 colors it might be even more memorable if all of the whole steps were one color and the half steps a different color.
