Description
Classifying and Sorting Common Nouns, contains 352 Picture Noun Cards to teach the Common Core Standard Vocabulary Acquisition and Use to primary students. The product includes 30 sorting mats, 100 Fry Picture noun cards, 252 common noun cards, and instructions for several games to teach primary students to sort, classify and categorize vocabulary words and to explain how items are classified and categorized and relationships between objects. Activities begin at the lowest level – sorting and move to classifying. These activities may be done as a whole class, with small groups, or individually in a center. They are great for early finishers, gifted, and ELL students! As students create categories using words and pictures, they develop analysis, discrimination, comparison, and logical thinking skills. Identifying similarities and differences helps students see patterns and make connections. Students develop logical reasoning skills when they analyze a group of items and observe their characteristics. They must be able to see patterns and make connections as they sort, group, and classify through comparing things that are similar and contrasting things that display differences.
