Sorting Squares
A fabulous matching activity which is applicable to all ability levels.
This game comes with a base card for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. To match to each base card there are 5 graphic cards to match to the letters.
Sorting Squares has different levels. For students who are just learning one letter at a time, they can match just the graphics that correspond with each letter. To make the skill harder you can add distractors of other letter graphic cards. You can also add further base cards and graphics to make it more difficult for students to work out which graphics belong on which base card.
You can also play this as a type of group bingo game, where each student has their own base card, and has to work out which graphic belongs on their card as the graphic is drawn out of a box.
This resource has much versatility and is very enjoyable for all mixed learning ability students.
