Caterpillar Patterns

I use this activity as a math center.  I asked one of our speech therapists, Keri Zadik, who is also a parent of one of my students, if she could make me a caterpillar without a body.  She used BoardMaker and created this; I just added the antenna.  Next, I copied it on card stock and got Pom-Poms at Dollar Tree.  The students colored the background first and then decided on the type of pattern to make (AB, ABC, AABB, etc).  Finally, they picked Pom-Poms and attached them with craft glue.
