Classification: Sort-it-Out!

Dear children,

Here are some pictures to help you recap what we have learnt for Term 1:

January: Sort-it-Out! Activity

Each group was given an envelope containing different pictures of things. They are tasked to classify them into groups, by comparing their similarities and differences.

Here are the pictures sorting done by different groups. Can you still recognize your group's work? 
I'm sorry that I can't seem to rotate the pictures here, so you might need to save the pictures and rotate them for an easier view.










Can you tell how the other groups had sorted out their pictures?
What characteristics did they base on?
If there's another way to classify your pictures, how would you do it?
Draw out a classification diagram in your Nature Study Book (different from what your group had done).

If you really can't remember which of the pictures above is your group's work, you can choose any group's sorted out picture, figure out how did they classify them and choose another way to classify them.

Have fun!
