Drag, Drop, and Sort With An Interactive Plant and Animal Sorting Game

Make science hands-on and interactive with Teach Starter! This Google Slides / PowerPoint Plant and Animal Sorting Game is designed for Foundation Year and Grade 1 learners to practise observing and grouping living things based on their external features. 

With bright visuals and simple sorting tasks, this Plant and Animal Sorting Game encourages students to build early science classification skills as they manipulate images of plants and animals on-screen.

Drag-and-Drop Sorting Activity for Grouping Living Things

This interactive drag-and-drop Sorting Activity for Grouping Living Things includes 12 slides featuring movable images of animals and plants that students drag and sort into groups based on observable features such as:

• body coverings (fur, feathers, scales, skin)
• Body parts (wings, legs, flippers)

Each slide focuses on a single sorting rule, making it easy for young learners to understand the task.
