About this worksheet
A Year 1 cut-and-stick sort for pupils who are not yet reading on their own. Page 1 has twelve picture cards with short labels, four each of wood, metal and plastic, set around a mixed-up recycling crate. Pupils stick or draw each card in a three-column table on page 2, where each column has a picture header (a log, a bolt, a stack of tubs). Two talk questions and a teacher prompt about the foil and the lolly stick follow. The answer page lists the sort and the tricky items. It covers the England National Curriculum statement on naming everyday materials.
