Math time: Sorting


     One of the things we've been practicing in math is sorting by attributes.  We have sorted and compared shapes and colors of buttons, blocks, linking cubes, colored animals, and much more.  Today, we sorted ourselves!  All of the students who were wearing shoes with laces went to one side of the carpet, and those without laces stood on the other.  After sorting, the children were able to estimate which side of the carpet had more.  After making their estimate, we counted to check our answer.  More students in our class wore shoes without laces today!  We will continue to classify, count, and compare as we move through our math unit.  Stay tuned!
