Picture Sorts                               


Food Sorting

Children sort according to if it is a healthy food or treat food.  Pictures can be found in your weekly flyers.

 

More Difficult Sorting

Literacy Station Ideas 

1.  Combine the pictures into making a Healthy Food booklet and the children can read the picture words to each other.

2.  Give each child a bag with the names of the different foods.  Can they find the matching name?  After, see how many names were correctly matched. This is a good visual discrimination activity.
