Alphabetize the Words with S Worksheets - Free Printable

Problem:

The task is to alphabetize the words that start with the letter "S." The list of words provided is:

- sat
- sit
- Sunday
- Saturday
- sell
- said
- stop
- soap
- set
- sound
- smell
- snow
- slow
- seed
- see

Solution:

To alphabetize the words, we need to arrange them in ascending order based on their letters. Here's how we can do it step by step:

1. Identify the first letter of each word: All the words start with "S," so we will look at the second letter to determine the order.
2. Compare the second letters:
- If two words have the same second letter, we move to the third letter, and so on.
3. Arrange the words in alphabetical order:

Let's go through the list and sort it:

- sat: Second letter is "a"
- sit: Second letter is "i"
- Sunday: Second letter is "u"
- Saturday: Second letter is "a", but since it has more letters, we compare further: "t" vs. "t" (same), then "u" vs. "e" → "Saturday" comes before "Sunday"
- sell: Second letter is "e"
- said: Second letter is "a"
- stop: Second letter is "t"
- soap: Second letter is "o"
- set: Second letter is "e"
- sound: Second letter is "o"
- smell: Second letter is "m"
- snow: Second letter is "n"
- slow: Second letter is "l"
- seed: Second letter is "e"
- see: Second letter is "e"

Now, let's arrange them in alphabetical order:

1. said (Second letter "a")
2. sat (Second letter "a")
3. Saturday (Second letter "a", then "t", then "e")
4. seed (Second letter "e")
5. see (Second letter "e")
6. sell (Second letter "e")
7. set (Second letter "e")
8. slow (Second letter "l")
9. snow (Second letter "n")
10. smell (Second letter "m")
11. sound (Second letter "o")
12. soap (Second letter "o")
13. sit (Second letter "i")
14. stop (Second letter "t")
15. Sunday (Second letter "u")

Final Alphabetized List:

1. said
2. sat
3. Saturday
4. seed
5. see
6. sell
7. set
8. slow
9. snow
10. smell
11. sound
12. soap
13. sit
14. stop
15. Sunday
