Children's toys invariably come in a rainbow of colors - blocks, pretend play place settings, cars, and play necklaces, to name a few, all offer assorted color selections. As your students play, watch them. You might be surprised to find how much they experiment with color sorting (e.g. matching the yellow glass to the yellow plate and the orange glass to the orange plate as they set the table for \"dinner\", parking the red cars in one row and the blue cars in another, etc.).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrouping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvide interested students with letter cutouts and a handful of mismatched \"markers\".
