Sort the objects

Materials: 6 boxes or containers, a large bag, classroom realia: crayons, pencils, scissors, glue, books (5 of each).
Preparation: Attach the crayon, pencil, scissors, glue, book and paper cutouts one to each box. Display the boxes at the front of the classroom.
Directions: Put all the realia in a large bag in front of students. Have the puppet help you carry the bag. Walk a little with the puppet, then drop the bag by accident, spilling out all of the school objects.
Have students help the puppet put all the objects in the corresponding boxes. Call up individual students to pick up one of the objects and put it in the correct box. Encourage the class to give instructions for putting the objects in the box. e.g. (name), come here. Pick up a crayon. Put it in the box.
