Simple Machines, Heat Transfer and Light Waves Card Sorts This bundle includes four sorting activities for physics concepts. The first is classifying items as one of the six simple machines, the second is distinguishing between the three types of heat transfer, the third has students sort objects by the amount of light that passes through them, and the fourth set contains information on the wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum. Each sort contains photographs of items, sorting sheets and answer keys. Different sizes and formats of cards are provided to use in a variety of ways. The large cards can be used for science centers or stations while the small ones will fit in interactive notebooks. Use these sets together or separately. All the sorts can be differentiated to fit the needs and levels of your students. Perfect for ELL, SPED, visual and kinesthetic learners. This Resource Includes • Simple Machines-48 different color picture cards in 4 formats (Inclined Plane, Screw, Wedge, Wheel and Axle, Pulley, and Lever) • Heat Transfer-24 different color picture cards in 4 formats (Conduction, Convection, Radiation) • Light Waves-24 different color picture cards in 4 formats (Transparent, Translucent, Opaque) • Electromagnetic Spectrum-35 different color cards in 3 sizes (Headings, Examples, Wavelengths, Uses, and Dangers) • Sorting Sheets (full-size, half-size, differentiated) • Category Labels • Answer Keys Other Resources You May Enjoy Properties and Changes of Matter | Chemistry | Card Sort Bundle Waves | Lesson Plan | Bundle
