About Sort It
Drag items into the right bins: living/non-living, odd/even, solid/liquid/gas, noun/verb. One engine, dozens of sorts.
Ankhdase tracks 4 distinct skills in Sort It, including Sorting & classifying, Animal classification, States of matter and Parts of speech. Because mastery is estimated per skill rather than per game, the questions shift toward whatever a student is getting wrong — and away from what they have already proved they know.
How to play
- Drag each item into the right bin — or tap the item, then tap the bin.
- A wrong drop bounces back and shows you why.
- Clear the whole tray to finish the round.
Skills Sort It practices
- Sorting & classifying
- Animal classification
- States of matter
- Parts of speech
Mastery is estimated separately for each of these, which is what lets the difficulty move independently — a student can be fluent on one and still be fed easier questions on another.
