This skill is generally useful in expanding vocabulary and conversation skills, and also in activities or situations where the child must use reasoning to figure out more general information. Identifying items by their features, function or class provides students with the vocabulary they need to describe and explain items or situations with greater detail.Also helpful in organizational and sorting skills where objects are grouped based on their features, function, or class.

Open the 'Google slides' presentation to reveal the activity prompts. Take pictures of items based on features, functions and class. Encourage students to think outside the box and look for a variety of items for each prompt. Have fun! I will post your responses after you send them to me on Remind. If you are not able to open 'Google Slides' please contact me so I can adjust the format.
