7 Days of Categorisation Tasks!

As a follow-up to our post on sorting and categorisation, we thought it helpful to further illustrate how just a few CardEd cards can be used to create a myriad of activities.

Select several CardEd cards

Choose cards specific to the skills you are trying to embed e.g. only select cards with 1 or 2 shapes if children are working on quantities to 2. As children become more adept at sorting, you can have them sort by 2 criteria e.g. find vowel cards with 2 shapes only.

I chose the following cards.

Activity 1: Sort by Colour

Activity 2: Sort by Symbol

Note: Young children do not need to know what the symbol means as this is too abstract for them. They are simply completing a matching exercise.

Activity 3 :Sort by Letter

Activity 4: Sort by Consonant and Vowels

Activity 5: Sort by Number

Activity 6: Sort by Quantity (Number of Shapes)

Activity 7: Sort Using 2 Criteria (Consonant + 4 Shapes)

Why not try CardEd for categorisation today?

There are many different ways each of our CardEd sets can be used. Our comprehensive Activity Guide features over 90 activities, and we will continue to post more activities, ideas, and research-based information on our blog.
