Free "What Comes Next?" Worksheets – Build Predictability & Sequencing Skills!
Heyyy, BCBA Ruby here!
One of the biggest skills we work on with early learners is predictability and sequencing—understanding patterns, routines, and what comes next. Whether it’s following a morning routine, anticipating the next step in a familiar activity, or recognizing patterns in play, these skills help kids develop independence, problem-solving, and communication.
That’s why I’m excited to share two FREE "What Comes Next?" worksheets to help your child build these important skills in a fun and engaging way!
Why Is Sequencing Important?
Teaching kids to recognize patterns and predict what comes next helps with:
✅ Cognitive Development – Strengthening logical thinking and reasoning.
✅ Language & Communication – Helping children understand order in conversations and daily routines.
✅ Daily Living Skills – Making transitions smoother by following predictable steps.
✅ ABA Learning Readiness – Preparing kids to follow multi-step directions and complete structured tasks.
