Alphabetizing Worksheet for Homeschoolers

Parents: Copy and paste this list and the instructions into a word processing program. Adjust it as needed or desired for your child. Answers are below.

Instructions:


Put the following words in alphabetical order. Remember that if the first letters are the same, you should look at the second letter. If those are both the same, go to the third letter, and so on. If you find this hard to do, cut each word out. Then choose one word. Put it on the table or floor. Choose another word. Does it go before or after the first word you chose? If you find you've made a mistake, it's very easy to change. You parent can either check your work by looking at your list, or, if you have to save the results to show someone, you can copy the list or glue the words onto paper. Can you explain what all these words mean and what they have to do with homeschooling?
