How do you group things? Our Kindergarten students came up with many different ways! They grouped things according to colour, the number of legs, vehicles that moved on land, in the air or on the water, things with wheels, animals that can swim, animals that can crawl, animals that can climb, things you can eat, and one even sorted animals according to which era of time they lived in! The concept of grouping is the beginning, and basis of, deeper mathematical understandings. The children all had a great time sorting, grouping and verbalising their reasonings.
