We are working in the second math unit, Patterns and Relationships. It's great fun sorting and classifying groups of things. Today we looked at attributes of people : hair, shoes, eyes, and things we can do. We used our classroom matrix and sorted ourselves into groups that matched the attribute cards. Then we worked in groups and sorted a bag of objects. It was hard to think of 2 attributes to use for sorting. We used size, color, texture, and beauty as some of our sorting characteristics.
P.S. The green words are math vocabulary words - students, make sure you know what they mean!
Parents - you can help by asking your child to work with you and demonstrate this activity at home.. Use any objects you have handy (eg. bolts, plastic lids, crayons, seeds, etc.).
