Sorting objects activity

In this activity SEND pupils develop their understanding of the computing curriculum by identifying that objects have similarities, finding patterns in groups of objects and sorting them accordingly and explaining the similarities between groups of objects. Pupils are given the opportunity to sort objects according to their features and develop their ability to spot patterns. Extension activities are also provided to allow pupils to work with algorithms by creating rules for their patterns.
