Word Bank:
- fox
- hot
- got
- cot
- box
- dog

Step 1: Arrange the words in ABC order
We need to sort these words alphabetically by their first letter:
-
box
-
cot
-
dog
-
fox
-
got
-
hot
Let’s check:
- b (box) → comes first
- c (cot) → next
- d (dog) → next
- f (fox) → next
- g (got) → next
- h (hot) → last
✔ So the ABC order is:
1.
box
2.
cot
3.
dog
4.
fox
5.
got
6.
hot

Step 2: Find the words that rhyme
Now, look for words that have the same ending sound.
Let’s examine the endings:
-
box → ends in "ox"
-
cot → ends in "ot"
-
dog → ends in "og"
-
fox → ends in "ox"
-
got → ends in "ot"
-
hot → ends in "ot"
So:
-
box and
fox both end in
"ox" → they rhyme!
-
cot,
got, and
hot all end in
"ot" → they rhyme with each other!
So the rhyming groups are:
-
box, fox → rhyme (ox sound)
-
cot, got, hot → rhyme (ot sound)
But note:
dog doesn’t rhyme with any of them — it ends in "og", which is a different sound.
So the words that rhyme are:
-
box and fox
-
cot, got, and hot
