Here are some Transportation same and different cards to help kids build visual discrimination skills. These skills help children identify letters, numbers, and shapes, and distinguish the different between shapes, such as p, q, b, d and numbers like 6 and 9 or 3 and 8.
To prepare the activity, you will need to print the cards, laminate, and cut out each card.
Children will choose a card and look at the four pictures. Three of the pictures are the same and one picture is different. Children will find the picture that’s different and mark it with a manipulative.
There are lots of manipulatives you can use with these cards.
Manipulatives to use:
- Plastic chips
