Instructions:
Choose a Notebook
Cover Page
You’ll find both full-page and half-
page notebook covers. Students
will color their cover, cut it out on
the dotted line and glue onto the
front of their notebook.
Create Some Storage

Since your students will be completing each sort several times, they’ll
need somewhere to keep their cards until they are ready to glue them
into their notebooks. I always like to glue or tape a small envelope onto
the inside of the front cover and use it as a pocket. To make it even
easier for your kiddos to keep track of their cards, use a snack-sized
baggie to hold the cards and place the baggie into the envelope.
SORTs 1-6:
Option #1: Picture Sort
Glue the heading at the top of the page. Then, cut
apart the picture cards included in the workbook
(discarding the sorting cards) and glue under the
appropriate letter.
Option #2: Word Sort

Glue the heading at the top of the page. Then,
cut apart the word cards and glue under the
appropriate letter.
SORTs 7-10:
Sorting Words & Pictures
Glue the heading at the top of the page.
Then, sort both the words and pictures and
glue underneath the appropriate heading.
SORTs 11-50:
Word Sort
Glue the heading at the top of the page.
Then, cut apart the word cards and
glue under the appropriate category.
