This Sorting Shape by Color worksheet is a color-sorting activity designed to help children categorize shapes based on their color. The task involves cutting out the pictures at the bottom and pasting them into the correct column labeled by color: red, blue, or green.
Columns:
There are three columns with color labels at the top:
- Red column: For red-colored shapes.
- Blue column: For blue-colored shapes.
- Green column: For green-colored shapes.
Cut-out Shapes:
The bottom section contains a variety of shapes in different colors within dashed lines. These shapes are to be cut out and pasted into the appropriate column based on their color:
- Red shapes: Red square, red star.
- Blue shapes: Blue triangle, blue circle.
- Green shapes: Green square, green triangle.
- Other shapes: Purple cross and purple triangle (not matching the columns but included for extra challenge).
Purpose:
- Color recognition: This activity helps children identify and differentiate between red, blue, and green colors.
- Shape identification: Although the primary focus is color sorting, children also get to recognize common shapes (square, circle, triangle, star).
- Fine motor skills: Cutting and pasting the shapes enhances hand-eye coordination and motor control.
- Categorization skills: Children practice organizing objects into groups based on their visual attributes, strengthening logical thinking and sorting abilities.
This worksheet is suitable for preschool or early elementary-aged children and provides a fun way to reinforce color identification and shape recognition while improving motor skills.
