Give kids a pile of picture cards and three hoops labeled food, animals and toys. They sort and say each word aloud. Then ask, "Can you think of one more for each group?" Sorting builds word knowledge and thinking skills together.
Why it works: going from real objects to pictures to symbols is a core recommendation of the U.S. Department of Education's elementary math guide.
