Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Alphabetizing 2nd 3rd Letter 3 Worksheets | PDF
It looks like you've uploaded an image of a worksheet with a word arrangement task, but the image is partially cut off and not fully visible. However, based on what I can see, it appears to be a puzzle where you need to arrange words in alphabetical order using numbers 1 to 5 (or possibly more) to indicate their correct sequence.

Let me analyze the visible parts of the worksheet and solve each section step by step. Here are the lists:

---

1.


Words:
- pork
- plane
- plastic
- pink
- plate

Step-by-step sorting:
We sort these alphabetically by first letter:
- pork
- plane
- plastic
- pink
- plate

Now, compare second letters:
- "plane" → 'l'
- "plastic" → 'l'
- "plate" → 'l'
- "pink" → 'i'
- "pork" → 'o'

So:
- "pink" comes first (p-i)
- Then "plane", "plastic", "plate" — all start with "pl"

Compare "plane", "plastic", "plate":
- "plane" → 'a' after "pl"
- "plastic" → 'a'
- "plate" → 'a'

All have same prefix "pla", so look at next letter:
- "plane" → 'n'
- "plastic" → 's'
- "plate" → 't'

So order:
1. pink
2. plane
3. plastic
4. plate
5. pork

Final answer for #1:
1. pink
2. plane
3. plastic
4. plate
5. pork

2.


Words:
- bridge
- block
- bride
- brog
- bough
- bright

All start with 'b'. Sort by second letter:

- br idge → 'r'
- bl ock → 'l'
- br ide → 'r'
- br og → 'r'
- bo ugh → 'o'
- br ight → 'r'

So:
- 'l' → block
- 'o' → bough
- 'r' → bridge, bride, brog, bright

Now sort the 'r' group by third letter:
- bridge → 'i'
- bride → 'i'
- brog → 'o'
- bright → 'i'

So:
- 'i': bridge, bride, bright
- 'o': brog

Now sort 'i' group:
- bridge, bride, bright

Compare fourth letter:
- bridge → 'd'
- bride → 'd'
- bright → 'g'

So:
- bridge, bride (both 'd'), then bright ('g')

Now compare bridge vs bride:
- fifth letter: 'g' vs 'e' → 'e' comes before 'g'
- So bride before bridge

Wait:
- bride: b-r-i-d-e
- bridge: b-r-i-d-g-e → 'g' > 'e', so bride < bridge

Thus:
1. block
2. bough
3. bride
4. bridge
5. brog
6. bright

But there are 6 words, and only 5 slots? Wait — maybe the list has 6 items but only 5 blanks?

Looking back:
The blank lines show 5 under #2, but we have 6 words. Let's check again.

List:
- bridge
- block
- bride
- brog
- bough
- bright → yes, 6 words.

But only 5 blanks shown. That’s odd. Maybe a typo or misprint.

Alternatively, perhaps “brog” is a typo? But assuming all are valid, we proceed.

But since the instruction says "arrange the words in alphabetical order," and there are 6 words, likely there should be 6 blanks. But as per image, only 5 shown.

Perhaps we need to pick top 5? Unlikely.

Wait — let's recheck:
Maybe “brog” is not intended? Or perhaps it's “brow”? But we’ll assume all are correct.

But since the user said “numbers 1 to 5,” maybe only 5 words per set?

Wait — looking at #1: 5 words → 5 blanks
#2: 6 words listed, but only 5 blanks → inconsistency

Possibly a formatting issue.

But let's continue.

Sorted order:
1. block
2. bough
3. bride
4. bridge
5. brog
6. bright

So if only 5 blanks, maybe one word is incorrect? Or perhaps the user meant to include all.

But for now, let’s assume we’re to sort them properly.

So best answer:
1. block
2. bough
3. bride
4. bridge
5. brog
6. bright

But since only 5 blanks, maybe “brog” is not real? Or perhaps it’s “brought”? But we’ll go with given.

Alternatively, maybe “brog” is “broke”? But no.

Let’s move on and come back.

3.


Words:
- sleep
- sleek
- shop
- trap
- slice
- slap

All start with s or t.

Group:
- s: sleep, sleek, shop, slice, slap
- t: trap

So trap is last.

Now sort s-words:
- sleep
- sleek
- shop
- slice
- slap

Second letter:
- sleep → 'l'
- sleek → 'l'
- shop → 'h'
- slice → 'l'
- slap → 'l'

So:
- shop → 'h' → comes first among s-words
- then others: 'l' → sleep, sleek, slice, slap

Now sort 'l' group:
- sleep → 'e' after 'sl'
- sleek → 'e'
- slice → 'i'
- slap → 'a'

So:
- slap → 'a' → first
- sleep → 'e'
- sleek → 'e'
- slice → 'i'

Now sleep vs sleek:
- sleep: s-l-e-e-p
- sleek: s-l-e-e-k
→ both same until last letter: 'p' vs 'k' → 'k' < 'p', so sleek before sleep

Then slice (s-l-i-c-e) → 'i' > 'e', so after

So order:
1. shop
2. slap
3. sleek
4. sleep
5. slice
6. trap

Again, 6 words, but only 5 blanks? Same issue.

But if we must choose 5, then omit one? Unlikely.

Perhaps the list has a typo.

But let’s assume all are valid and proceed.

4.


Words:
- track
- trap
- trace
- tram
- train

All start with 'tr'.

So sort by third letter:
- track → 'a'
- trap → 'a'
- trace → 'a'
- tram → 'a'
- train → 'a'

All have 'tra' → so look at fourth letter:

- track → 'c'
- trap → 'p'
- trace → 'c'
- tram → 'm'
- train → 'i'

So:
- 'c': track, trace
- 'i': train
- 'm': tram
- 'p': trap

Now sort 'c' group:
- track → 'k'
- trace → 'e'
→ 'e' < 'k', so trace before track

So full order:
1. trace
2. track
3. train
4. tram
5. trap

Yes, 5 words → matches 5 blanks.

Answer for #4:
1. trace
2. track
3. train
4. tram
5. trap

5.


Words:
- spill
- steep
- steer
- steel
- steal

All start with 'st' or 'sp'

- spill → 'p' → earlier than 'st'
- steep → 't'
- steer → 't'
- steel → 't'
- steal → 't'

So spill comes first.

Then 'ste' words:
- steep → 'e'
- steer → 'e'
- steel → 'e'
- steal → 'e'

All same up to 'ste'

Fourth letter:
- steep → 'e'
- steer → 'e'
- steel → 'e'
- steal → 'e'

Fifth letter:
- steep → 'p'
- steer → 'r'
- steel → 'l'
- steal → 'l'

So:
- steel, steal → 'l'
- steep → 'p'
- steer → 'r'

Now steel vs steal:
- steel → 'l'
- steal → 'l' → same

Sixth letter:
- steel → 'l'
- steal → 'a' → 'a' < 'l', so steal before steel

So order:
1. spill
2. steal
3. steel
4. steep
5. steer

Answer for #5:
1. spill
2. steal
3. steel
4. steep
5. steer

---

6.


Words:
- frog
- fome
- Frank
- fry
- fruit

All start with 'f'

Second letter:
- frog → 'r'
- fome → 'o'
- Frank → 'r'
- fry → 'r'
- fruit → 'r'

So:
- fome → 'o' → first
- then others: 'r' → frog, Frank, fry, fruit

Now sort 'r' group:
- frog → 'o'
- Frank → 'a'
- fry → 'y'
- fruit → 'u'

So:
- Frank → 'a' → first
- frog → 'o'
- fruit → 'u'
- fry → 'y'

So order:
1. fome
2. Frank
3. frog
4. fruit
5. fry

But wait: fry ends with 'y', which is later than 'u', so fruit before fry

So:
1. fome
2. Frank
3. frog
4. fruit
5. fry

Answer for #6:
1. fome
2. Frank
3. frog
4. fruit
5. fry

Note: "Frank" is capitalized, but in alphabetical order, case doesn't matter unless specified. We treat it as 'frank' for sorting.

7.


Names:
- Tan, Mark
- Tee, Matt
- Ty, Fons
- Tom, Lance
- Terry, Vince

We need to arrange the names in alphabetical order.

First, extract all names:
- Tan
- Mark
- Tee
- Matt
- Ty
- Fons
- Tom
- Lance
- Terry
- Vince

Now sort alphabetically:

Start with first letter:
- Fons → F
- Lance → L
- Mark → M
- Matt → M
- Tan → T
- Tee → T
- Tom → T
- Terry → T
- Ty → T
- Vince → V

So:
- Fons → first
- Lance → next
- Mark, Matt → M
- Then T group: Tan, Tee, Tom, Terry, Ty
- Vince → last

Now sort M group:
- Mark
- Matt → 'a' vs 'a'? Both 'M', then 'a' → same
- 'r' vs 't' → 'r' < 't', so Mark before Matt

T group:
- Tan → 'a'
- Tee → 'e'
- Tom → 'o'
- Terry → 'e'
- Ty → 'y'

So:
- Tan → 'a' → first
- Tee, Terry → 'e'
- Tom → 'o'
- Ty → 'y'

Now Tee vs Terry:
- Tee → 'e'
- Terry → 'e' → same
- next: 'e' vs 'r' → 'e' < 'r', so Tee before Terry

So T order:
1. Tan
2. Tee
3. Terry
4. Tom
5. Ty

Now full order:
1. Fons
2. Lance
3. Mark
4. Matt
5. Tan
6. Tee
7. Terry
8. Tom
9. Ty
10. Vince

But only 5 blanks shown → problem.

Wait — the list shows:
7. Tan, Mark
Tee, Matt
Ty, Fons
Tom, Lance
Terry, Vince

So 5 pairs → 10 names, but only 5 blanks → likely we need to write the pairs in order?

Or perhaps the instruction is to arrange the pairs alphabetically?

But that doesn’t make sense.

Alternative: perhaps we are to list the names in alphabetical order, but only 5 blanks → maybe only top 5?

But that seems arbitrary.

Wait — maybe the task is to arrange the pairs in alphabetical order by the first name?

Let’s try:

Pairs:
1. Tan, Mark
2. Tee, Matt
3. Ty, Fons
4. Tom, Lance
5. Terry, Vince

Now sort these pairs by the first name alphabetically:

- Fons → but Fons is second in pair 3 → so pair 3: Ty, Fons → first name is Ty
- So we sort by the first name in each pair.

So:
- Tan → T
- Tee → T
- Ty → T
- Tom → T
- Terry → T

All start with T → so look at second letter:
- Tan → 'a'
- Tee → 'e'
- Tom → 'o'
- Terry → 'e'
- Ty → 'y'

So:
- Tan → 'a' → first
- Tee, Terry → 'e'
- Tom → 'o'
- Ty → 'y'

Tee vs Terry:
- 'e' vs 'e' → same
- then 'e' vs 'r' → 'e' < 'r', so Tee before Terry

So order of pairs:
1. Tan, Mark
2. Tee, Matt
3. Terry, Vince
4. Tom, Lance
5. Ty, Fons

But wait — Tom is 'o', which comes after 'e' but before 'y'

So:
- Tan (T-a)
- Tee (T-e)
- Terry (T-e)
- Tom (T-o)
- Ty (T-y)

So:
1. Tan, Mark
2. Tee, Matt
3. Terry, Vince
4. Tom, Lance
5. Ty, Fons

So answer for #7:
1. Tan, Mark
2. Tee, Matt
3. Terry, Vince
4. Tom, Lance
5. Ty, Fons

8.


Words:
- charm
- Christmas
- chain
- crystal
- class

All start with 'c'

Second letter:
- charm → 'h'
- Christmas → 'h'
- chain → 'h'
- crystal → 'r'
- class → 'l'

So:
- class → 'l' → comes before 'h'? No: 'l' > 'h'? Wait:

Alphabet: c, h, l, r

So:
- 'h' → charm, Christmas, chain
- 'l' → class
- 'r' → crystal

So:
- charm, Christmas, chain → 'h'
- class → 'l'
- crystal → 'r'

Now sort 'h' group:
- charm → 'a' after 'ch'
- Christmas → 'r'
- chain → 'a'

So:
- charm → 'a'
- chain → 'a'
- Christmas → 'r'

Now charm vs chain:
- charm → 'r'
- chain → 'i' → 'i' < 'r', so chain before charm

So 'h' group:
1. chain
2. charm
3. Christmas

Then class → 'l'
Then crystal → 'r'

So full order:
1. chain
2. charm
3. Christmas
4. class
5. crystal

Wait: class starts with 'cl', so 'l' after 'h', yes.

But 'class' → 'l'
'crystal' → 'r' → after 'l'

So:
1. chain
2. charm
3. Christmas
4. class
5. crystal

Answer for #8:
1. chain
2. charm
3. Christmas
4. class
5. crystal
