Sorting Cards
Sorting games are super fun for children. Why? Because they love to notice the similarities and differences among things and then group those things into categories. In literacy research, we call this developing 'gist.' When we get the gist of something, we understand the basics about how it is connected with other similar concepts. You can get more ideas for sorting activities in our blog post called What are the Best Sorting Games.
You can use any of our basic vocabulary cards or advanced vocabulary cards for sorting games. But, we've also created a few specific sorting sets to make things easy.
