Short Vowel Picture Sorts is part of a bundle! Check it out here: Short Vowels Bundle This resource is a perfect practice or assessment opportunity for students to listen for short vowel sounds in words. With these printables, students will state the picture name and sort the picture according to the vowel sound. A full-color sort is included for teachers to model in a whole or small group setting. While word sorts are a great practice opportunity, The All-Star Classroom prefers pictures as a better assessment measure. With picture sorts, students must correctly listen and identify the vowel sound without being able to look at the letters in the word. The following no-prep short vowel picture sort printables are included: *Modeling Picture Sorts *Single Vowel Discrimination Sorts *2-Vowel Comparison Sorts *3-Vowel Comparison Sorts *All 5 Short Vowels Sorts Be sure to check out the product preview for a closer look at these short vowel picture sorts!

Hi Friends! Over the 3 day weekend, I made some time to create a color sorting activity. Using the beloved Google Images, I found pictures of both cartoon and real objects for the kids to sort. I made them all into flashcards for you to download and use with your students! There are 90 cards, 10 pictures for each color. The colors included are yellow, orange, blue, green, red, brown, black, purple, and pink. (After creating them, I realized it would have been helpful to add "white" objects for sorting. Check back later for those!) There are numerous ways to use these cards: Receptive ID (identification) - "touch the red car" or "which one is the yellow banana?" Expressive ID - "what is this?" "what color is this?" Matching - print two sets of each card Feature Function Class - have the kids identify items by FFC (ex. "which one do you eat?") Sort by Category - food, color, clothes, etc Get creative and have the kids match the cards to buckets with a color card on the outside of each one or have the kids find the cards in a scavenger hunt game around the classroom, etc. I hope you enjoy!

Hi guys! Today I wanted to share with you my favourite lessons and resources for teaching sorting in Kindergarten! LESSONS: First of all here are my plans for sorting: You can click on the image above to download the plans in PDF for easy printing! On Day 1, I introduce our learning goal for sorting and define sorting: Then we practice sorting by colour! I prepare a bag of items and have the students sort them into hoola hoops. After the lesson I transferred them onto canvas to display as part of our sorting resource wall. I happened to have these canvases lying around but I know canvas is expensive so if you don't have canvases I would just use cardboard cut to size! On Day 2, we reviewed the learning goal and then practice sorting by shape. We sorted the shape buttons as a group and then transferred them onto the canvases again to put on our sorting wall. On Day 3, we reviewed the learning goal and then practiced sorting by size. We sorted these pom poms by size and then transferred them onto the canvases again to put on our sorting wall. On Day 4, we introduced how we can sort in a variety of ways (not just colour, shape and size). We read the book "Sort It Out" by Barbara Mariconda and talked about all the ways Packy (the mouse in the story) sorted his stuff. On Day 5, we reviewed the learning goal and talked about why we learn to sort and when we use this skill in our life. We talked about how we sort items in our classroom to help us find things easier and how things are sorted in the grocery store to help us find what we want easier too. At the end of our unit our sorting reference wall looks like this: When students sort items and can tell me their sorting rule, I take a picture and put it as an example under "I can sort things and say my sorting rule." CENTRES: And here are some of the centres that we put out for the students to explore sorting: 1. SORTING BUTTONS Student make a sorting rule and sort them into the fruit cup containers. I add tweezers for extra fine motor practice! 2. SORTING BEADS I have the students sort the beads by colour. I add the tongs for extra fine motor practice! And if they use their finger, the small beads encourages them to use a pincer grip. 3. SORTING POM POMS Sorting is awesome because you can literally sort anything! I love this bag of pom poms because there are different sizes. This way the kids can sort by size or colour! 4. SORTING LETTERS I spread my home made tactile letters out around a bin of magnetic letters and encouraged the students to sort by letter. An easy way to integrate literacy and math :) 5. SORTING NUMBERS Then I did the same thing with number magnets! 6. SORTING COUNTING BEARS When we first start sorting I put these sorting mats out to give those kids that need it more support. 7. SORTING PATTERN BLOCKS I have these mats as well that asks the students to sort the pattern blocks by shape too! You can find both mats (and many more) by clicking here. 8. SORTING A VARIETY OF MATERIALS After the students are familiar with sorting I start to set out multiple materials at a sorting centre and have the kids come up with different ways that they can sort the items! Here is an example: SMARTBOARD: And here are some of my favourite interactive sorting games that you can put on your SMARTBoard! My kids always love Fuzz Bugs! This game works on sorting by colour and other math skills like 1:1 correspondance and working on math vocabulary like most and least. This and That Sort It Shop is another great one because it practices sorting by a variety of rules such as short vs. tall or 4 legs vs. 2 legs (as pictured above). Flo & Zo Sort It Out! has sorting by colour, shape, pattern etc! iPAD APPS: Here are also some apps that you can put on your iPad to give students with more practice with sorting at centre time! You can find them all in the App Store! I hope you are able to use some of these ideas/resources in your classroom! What is your favourite activity or resource for teaching sorting?

Number Sense (0-10) About this book: This 0-10 number packet includes 11 cut and paste number sorting worksheets and 11 number and number representation card sets for a center activity. Directions for use: The aim of this center activity is for children to match all the number cards to the correct mat. You may like to begin by using only one mat and only its corresponding cards. As children become familiar with the activity and gain more confidence with their numbers, you can start to introduce 2 or more mats with all their corresponding cards. As a follow up to this activity, children can complete the worksheets included in this unit. Prepare for use: I have included 2 versions of each colored mat: one with images and one with words. Choose which mat/s you’d like to use, print them and the number cards, cut the cards apart and then laminate the mats and cards for durability. Velcro can be attached to the back of each card and mat. Happy Teaching :) Numbers 11-20 are available here!

Hi Friends! Let me start by saying Happy Teacher's Appreciation!! It's that time of year when everything starts piling up, and it's really hard to keep up with it all! With field day, end of year testing, paperwork, report cards, and of course, TEACHING, it gets a little overwhelming! On top of that, Mother's Day is this weekend, and sometimes we found ourselves scrounging for something to do that's, easy, cute and heartfelt. Here are some things I've done in the past, and I thought I'd pass along some ideas that worked for me. Last year and this year, we made these adorable clay fingerprint necklaces. I got the idea from the fabulous Lory Evans, and they were a huge hit. The kids and the mommas absolutely loved them!! You get Sculpey Oven-Bake Clay (one box will be plenty!). Roll it out like dough, and use a heart-shaped cookie cutter. Cut out the hearts, and have students use their pointer finger to make two fingerprints to make a heart. Make sure you put the hole in it while the clay is still pliable. Bake at 275 degrees for 15 minutes. Paint with acrylic pant, let dry, string and VOILA! {You can also use colored Sculpey clay and avoid the painting if you would like} A couple years ago, we made these super cute tea towels. You get really heavy grit sandpaper (40 grit, no more than 60), and flour sack tea towels. You can find all this at WalMart for pretty cheap. The kids will draw a SIMPLE picture on the sandpaper. *The image needs to be the mirror of what you want it to look like on the towel* Lay the tea towel down on an ironing board, then put the sand paper drawing face down onto the tea towel. Place an old towel in between the sand paper and your iron and press. You will leave your iron for a few seconds until it's hot enough and the image will transfer onto the towel. Throw the towels into the dryer for 1-2 minutes to set, and you're done! I have former parents that STILL have these towels and they've washed them successfully. Big hit! {The sandpaper EATS the crayons, so be prepared to go through a bunch while doing this!} Handprint bags! I grabbed these totes for about 50 cents a piece at Garden Ride (At Home, now). It's pretty self explanatory, but I just painted their little hands, and placed around a circle in the middle of the bag. The kids then painted the stem, and we laid them out to dry. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! Lastly, we are making these cute little booklets for our mama's this year. My kids are so excited about their little cupcake books, and I wanted to share them with you, too!! You can grab this for FREE in my TpT store by clicking {here} or on either of the pictures. Alternatives for aunt, grandma and other loved ones are included in the file. I hope you've found some ideas you can use this week. Wishing you all the happiest of Teacher Appreciation Weeks, too! I hope you all have a moment this week when you realize just how much of a difference you make each and every day. As always, thanks for stopping by!!
