Sorting by Size

We have been working on sorting all week.  We sorted Goldfish by color on Wednesday, but that was a bit of a mistake, because all I heard was, "Mrs. McCleary, how do you write the number__?"  Lesson learned... keep it in March for Dr. Seuss's birthday.  My class LOVED it when we did it last year around that time.

Today, we sorted by size.  Now, we had sorted by length last year (Do you remember the longer/shorter pin on Pinterest with the paper strips?), but I didn't feel that was really sorting by size when I compare it to the sorting assessment that is given in the first quarter.  So, I made a new sheet this morning.  Yes, I made it just minutes before my little ones stepped through the door.  If you use this activity, make sure they keep track of the small cupcake.  Several of those mysteriously disappeared as we were cutting.  :)

This freebie is available as a Facebook Fan freebie.
