SORT PLEASE!
data · sorting data into Venn diagrams
To sort data into a Venn diagram [1.MD.C.4].
SORT PLEASE! is a Grade 1 data game where students sort playing cards into Venn diagrams. A die determines which Venn board a player will use, then the player flips cards one at a time and places each card in the correct region based on the board’s conditions. The changing boards give students repeated practice deciding which attributes matter for a sort.
Use it in a small group when students are learning to organize data and interpret overlapping categories. Ask students to explain why a card belongs in one region instead of another before the sort is checked.
