2. Smartboard
The teacher would first begin circle time by reading a book on sorting called "Sort it Out" by Barbara M. and showing them hands on sorting objects on smart board with each child coming up to take a turn sorting also talking to the
children about if they know what sorting means or who knows how to sort
objects? If the kindergartners are still not quite sure the teacher would do
an example with the class by asking them first “How can we put the students in
our class into groups?" The teacher would move and put the children into boys
and girls or children who have shorts in one side and children wearing pants
and count children in each group. The
teacher then would probably pair two children together to work on sorting different
objects into categories by having two baskets or placement mats with pictures on
both the child well decide which object shape or food goes in what basket or on
which placement mat and count each item in the basket. Another activity they can do
sort objects by color, shape, and size.
