Sorting and Categorizing

Liz Clancy; grade 4

In Room 213, at Pine Glen, we have been practicing sorting and categorizing. We started with items in the classroom. We sorted the items by what they were, and then again by color. Then we sorted by its purpose.

When we broke apart into small groups, we practiced sorting household items. What groups can you make for this? Do you sort by its job or do you sort them by where you store the items?

It was a challenge, but we had fun!
