Classifying and Categorizing Activities for Preschool

If you’re on the hunt for some table activities and resources to practice categorizing and classifying objects in the classroom, you’re in the right place! We’ve created a fun Alien Grab Game to help your students sort pictures and objects into different categories.

Classification, categorization, and sorting skills are the basics of understanding and mathematical skills that come naturally to most children. Many kids enjoy sorting activities at a very young age – you have probably watched your students naturally sort objects according to their characteristics, such as color, size, or shape, without being taught or instructed to do so.  However, some students, particularly ESL learners, struggle with grouping and categorizing. They need extra practice.

How to Play the Alien Grab Game

Print, cut and laminate this set of alien posters and everyday object cards for students to sort into toys, food, cats, and shoes.

Use this teaching resource when learning about past and present toys and how they have changed over time.
