Play Sort & Count! A fun, interactive sorting game for preschool and kindergarten students to practice counting, identifying visual attributes, and grouping by color, size, and type.

 

 

How to play

1. Read or Listen: Read the banner at the top to see what attribute to look for (e.g., “How many BIG bears are in the box?”). Click the 🗣️ Listen button to hear the prompt read aloud.
   

2. Observe & Count: Look at the items inside the purple dashed box. Filter the collection visually to count only the items that match the requested category, size, or color.
   

3. Select Your Answer: Click one of the three numbered buttons at the bottom.
   

4. Get Instant Feedback:
   Correct Answer: Hear a celebration chime, earn a star ⭐, and read/listen to the explanation. Click Next Question ➔ to move forward.

Educational Summary
Sort & Count: Grouping Attributes is an early math and literacy tool designed for Pre-K through 1st-grade learners. The game bridges basic counting with categorical thinking—a foundational skill in early mathematical reasoning.

By requiring students to isolate specific visual properties (such as size, color, or taxonomy) within a mixed set of objects, the game reinforces visual discrimination, set classification, and one-to-one correspondence. The integrated Text-to-Speech (TTS) and immediate corrective feedback ensure non-readers and early readers can independently navigate the activity.

Teacher’s Guide & Classroom Integration
Learning Objectives
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.MD.B.3: Classify objects into given categories; count the numbers of objects in each category and sort the categories by count.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.CC.B.4: Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality.

Cognitive Skill Development: Build visual processing, working memory, and cognitive flexibility by switching target attributes between consecutive questions.

Recommended Classroom Uses
Whole-Group Warm-Up / Interactive Whiteboard: Display the game on a SmartBoard at the start of a math lesson. Have students raise their fingers or use mini-whiteboards to show their answer before selecting a option on screen.

Independent Math Centers: Set up the game on tablets or computers for independent practice. The built-in audio narration allows pre-readers to practice without requiring 1:1 adult intervention.

Small-Group Intervention: Use specific questions to target struggling learners who need focused practice distinguishing size relationships (big vs. small) or set boundaries (fruits vs. non-fruits).

Extension Activities
Hands-On Manipulative Sorting: Follow up digital play with real-world attribute blocks, button sets, or plastic counters. Have students sort physical items by two criteria (e.g., “Find all the red small buttons”).

Classroom Attribute Hunt: Ask students to locate 3 items in the classroom that share a specific property (e.g., “Find 3 blue items” or “Find 4 things smaller than your hand”).

“Which One Doesn’t Belong?” Questions: Reverse the task by presenting 4 objects where 3 share an attribute and 1 does not, prompting students to explain their logical reasoning verbally.
