This is a remix of Alike or Different Game from Illustrative Mathematics, https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/515.  The purpose of this activity is to give students practice classifying objects according to one attribute to support sol K.12.  The teacher gives each student an object.  They travel the room with their hand raised to find another student to compare their object with.  They compare to see if the object is alike or different and how (color, size, shape, thickness).  They trade objects and travel the room to find someone else to compare with. 

This lesson reviews citizenship expectations as students effectively communicate in small groups and the whole-class setting to prepare for a trip to the Science Museum! Students analyze and sort behaviors into categories, based on the attributes or actions described while reviewing vocabulary critical to a museum visit. Special thanks to the Science Museum of Western Virginia and the Center for Educational Networks and Impacts at Virginia Tech for their advisement and resource contribution to this lesson.
