Attribute Analyzer

In this worksheet, students examine a list of transportation-related items and sort them into two groups based on a chosen shared attribute. Students must first determine a meaningful classification rule, write a label for each group, and then place each item accordingly. The open-ended nature encourages multiple valid solutions, promoting flexible thinking. Students compare characteristics such as land vs. water transportation, motorized vs. non-motorized travel, or personal vs. public transport. This activity strengthens analytical skills, vocabulary understanding, and the ability to justify categorization decisions.
