Phonics—Syllable Word Sort Worksheet

About the Syllable Sort Worksheet

This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Syllable Sort, engages young learners in understanding syllable patterns through a basketball-themed sorting activity. The worksheet presents six common words on basketball graphics that students need to sort into two categories: one-syllable and two-syllable words. The creative design combines sports imagery with literacy learning, making the educational experience both fun and memorable.

The worksheet features a clear, visually appealing layout with two basketball hoops labeled "One Syllables" and "Two Syllables," and includes a variety of words like "running," "fish," "doll," "faster," "blanket," and "house." The sports theme adds an element of play to the learning process, helping students visualize the sorting activity as a game of basketball where they must "shoot" each word into the correct hoop based on its syllable count. This innovative approach transforms a fundamental phonological awareness exercise into an engaging educational activity.
