Sorting by Properties
In science we have been studying different ways to sort objects. The four properties that we are focusing on are color, shape, size, and texture. The students have been creating bubble maps together describing the properties of various objects. They have also been enjoying hands-on sorting activities in cooperative learning groups. Enjoy the quick video of the students sorting objects according to properties!
