Past and Present: Technology Sort

Technology now looks a lot different than it did in the past! Discover how common technologies have changed over time in this hands-on worksheet! Students will cut out the eight pictures at the bottom of the page. Then, they will sort the pictures into the past and present categories based on when the technology is from. This worksheet includes past and present telephones, televisions, cameras, and typing tools. 

This worksheet was designed to get second and third graders thinking about how familiar technologies have evolved and changed over time. Learners can build their foundational understanding of past and present, which is vital for social studies.
