Let's put the Clans into Harry Potter houses.
To me, I've always seen ThunderClan as Hufflepuff.
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true,
And unafraid of toil.
ThunderClan cats are just and loyal. ThunderClan, like Hufflepuff, are the most inclusive towards others, in ThunderClan's case, to kittypets, loners, and rogues. Hufflepuffs are known to be friendly and hard-working, much like ThunderClan. In the books, ThunderClan is sometimes direspected by the other Clans for taking in kittypets or being meddling. In the Harry Potter books, the wizarding opinion on Hufflepuff is this:
Everyone says Hufflepuff are a lot o' duffers.
Also, their animal symbol is a badger, and ThunderClan has had a lot of run-ins with badgers.
Moving on to the next Clan, I see RiverClan as Slytherin.
Or perhaps in Slytherin,
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means,
To achieve their ends.
The sorting hat's song for Slytherin isn't very accurate for RiverClan, but I have different reasons for seeing them as Slytherins. Slytherins are known to be resourceful, determined, prideful, cunning, ambitious, and self-preserving. I highlighted self-preserving because RiverClan, in many instances, are shown to be self-preserving. When in danger, they tend to shut themselves away in order to protect themselves.
RiverClan cats are very determined, prideful, and ambitious, like Slytherin. Also, Slytherin's element is water.
For Slytherin, I also put ShadowClan there. The sorting hat song is very accurate for ShadowClan. Many ShadowClan cats are cunning, ambitious, prideful, and determined, like Slytherin.
Few are welcome here, in our world of secrets and darkness. We are a Clan of cunning and cleverness, a Clan well suited to the shadows of the cold north wind. No other Clan can walk the paths of night like we do. Other Clans may be faster or stronger, but we are the most dangerous warriors: fierce, proud, and independent. We are ruthlessly willing to do what it takes to protect our great Clan. There won't be any softhearted alliances here! ShadowClan will always be the dark heart of the forest.
This passage here from Secrets of the Clans accurately describes ShadowClan. You can see how similar it is to most of the Slytherin traits. Also, both Slytherin and ShadowClan are misunderstood as darker than they really are.
For WindClan, I put them in Ravenclaw. Ravenclaws are witty, wise, accepting, intelligent, sharp, and creative. WindClan is known for their wit, and they are known to be one of the smartest Clans. Like Ravenclaw, WindClan was known to be kind, especially in the first series, but as the series went on, they grew quite aloof, mostly due to Onestar's reign.
We are the closest Clan to StarClan, spiritually and physically, and we always know our warrior ancestors are watching over us. That is what makes us strong. No matter what trials we must endure, WindClan will last forever.
Like Ravenclaw relies on its intelligence, WindClan relies on its spirituality. They are both very resilient groups.
Lastly, SkyClan. I put them in Gryffindor. SkyClan cats are agreeable, determined, friendly, and brave. They like to help others, much like Gryffindor. Gryffindors are brave and have chivalry, like SkyClan cats.
Instances of SkyClan cats helping others can be seen in them taking in ShadowClan, giving a part of their territory to ThunderClan when they were in need, and helping the rogues fight against Dodge. They've also shown bravery in numerous battles, especially in AVoS.

You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart
