Back to School Sorting Activities Kindergarten - Classifying | Feed th
Back To School, Holidays, Holiday & Seasonal, Kindergarten, Preschool, Games, Activities
Do your kids like to sort things? I think this is a fun way to help your little ones, who are in preschool or kindergarten learn about sorting and putting things into groups. This is great for kids who are just starting school because it helps them learn skills in a way that is fun and playful. ✨ So how does it work? Students look at cards with pictures on them. They have to decide which group each card belongs to. They do this by feeding the card to a monster, which is a fun way for them to learn about different ideas they might see at school. ✨ What do you get? ✔ One hundred cards with words and pictures on them ✔ Ten mats with monsters on them which the kids use to sort the cards ✔ The cards are sorted into groups so it is easy for the kids to understand ✔ All of the cards and mats are colorful and look like cartoons, which kids like ✨ There are five different levels of sorting: 1. Things you do at school versus things you do at home 2. Good behavior at school versus behavior 3. How you feel versus how you do not feel 4. ✏ Things you use every day at school versus things you only use 5. Things you bring to school versus things you leave at home It is really easy to get started. Just print out the cards and mats cut them out. You are ready to go. If you want them to last a time you can laminate them. You can use them over and again with small groups of kids or with kids who finish their work early. ✨ This is perfect, for: • The week of school • Teaching kids social skills • Helping kids understand their emotions. Behave well • Building vocabulary • Speech therapy My students love sorting with the monsters. They laugh and learn and they like to talk about the choices they make. It is one of their things to do in class.

Bring on the Thanksgiving Color by Number fun, where crayons meet comedy! These five pages are packed with festive designs like turkeys who forgot it’s November, pumpkins vying for pie stardom, and a cornucopia so full it’s practically saying, “Don’t judge me, it’s the holidays.” Each section is labeled with a number, and each number matches a color, simple, right? Unless you’re that one kid who insists on making the turkey purple because, and I quote, “It’s my artistic vision.” And honestly, who are we to argue? As your students work through these pages, they’ll unveil cheerful Thanksgiving scenes without even realizing they’re practicing focus and color-matching skills. It’s educational, but let’s keep that between us, no need to ruin the fun with big words. Whether it’s coloring a pumpkin the perfect shade of orange or accidentally turning a pie into an unintentional masterpiece, these pages are guaranteed to deliver laughs and creativity. No stress, no prep, and no arguments over who gets the last crayon. Just good old-fashioned fun—well, as old-fashioned as numbered coloring can get. So, grab your art supplies, and let’s make this Thanksgiving more colorful than Uncle Bob’s questionable holiday sweater. Enjoy!
