Sorting by Attributes

(View Complete Item Description)

After teaching about sorting objects, students will need some independent practice. In the classroom, students are often able to sort objects physically, but when they are learning online, they may need to do it by a computer program for the sake of teacher assessment. This Google slide deck has three attributes (shape, color, and size) for students to sort the pictures. It also contains some questions about sorting for discussion, whether students are in class or at home.
