Lesson Plan
Objective: Sort and group objects according to color, shape, and size
1) Language Arts: Students can sort and group different colored, shaped, and sized
objects while learning the names of colors, shapes, and sizes. This connects math to
language arts as students practice vocabulary and categorization skills.
2) Science: Students can explore different objects from nature, such as leaves or
rocks, and sort them according to color, shape, and size. This connects math to
science as students learn to observe and classify objects based on their
characteristics.
