Have pupils bring their own objects to classify

Sorting objects by properties is a lesson in justification. Learners begin by studying different types of properties of materials, including those based on appearance and texture. They examine the properties of specific items and use them to classify the objects into self-created categories.

I don't have enough for every student but I just pass them around and the kids love actually feeling what it feels like for the magnets to repel each other. https://padlet.com/agilbert37/vpu13bfi7nlwthg/wish/2512039728 2023-03-10 16:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/agilbert37/vpu13bfi7nlwthg/wish/2512039728 https://padlet.com/agilbert37/vpu13bfi7nlwthg/wish/2512041769 2023-03-10 16:05:03 UTC https://padlet.com/agilbert37/vpu13bfi7nlwthg/wish/2512041769 Give students 2 M&M's to hold one in each hand. Close one fist and keep one open on their palm.
