Sort the words
Cut apart a noun sort and have kids put words into person, place and thing piles. Then they add their own words to each pile. Sorting makes kids think about what a word does, not just what it looks like.
Why it works: the U.S. Department of Education's guide for teaching elementary math recommends moving from hands-on objects to drawings to numbers.
