Let’s solve this step by step.

We are looking for words that rhyme with book, bat, and fat.

Rhyming means the ending sounds of the words are the same — especially the last vowel and consonant sound.

---

First, let’s find words that rhyme with book.

“Book” ends with the “-ook” sound.

Look through the word list:

- look → yes! (same as book)
- hook → yes! (ends in -ook)
- cook → yes! (ends in -ook)

Also note: “look” appears twice in the list — we can use it once per category if needed, but since we’re grouping by rhyme, we’ll list each rhyming word once under its group.

So for book: look, hook, cook

Wait — also check: is there any other? “took”? Not in list. “spook”? No. So just those three.

But wait — the word “look” is listed twice in the original grid. That might be a trick or typo, but we only need to list unique rhyming words unless told otherwise. We’ll list each rhyming word once per category.

Actually, let’s double-check the full list again:

Original words:

Row 1: look, jump, dad, old, bad
Row 2: night, gold, glad, hook, cold
Row 3: at, sad, sat, told, sheep
Row 4: keep, sleep, star, car, hump
Row 5: hat, run, right, look, cook

So “look” appears in row 1 and row 5. But it’s the same word. So when listing rhymes for “book”, we include “look”, “hook”, “cook”.

Now, what about “took”? Not in list. “spook”? No. So only those three.

BUT — wait! The word “book” itself is not in the list to choose from — we are finding words from the list that rhyme with “book”. So we don’t write “book” in the box — we write words from the list that rhyme with it.

So for book column: look, hook, cook

(“look” is in the list, so we include it.)

---

Next, words that rhyme with bat.

“Bat” ends with “-at” sound.

Look for words ending in “-at”:

From the list:

- at → yes (but “at” is a bit short — does it rhyme? Yes, “bat” and “at” share the “-at” sound)
- sat → yes
- hat → yes
- cat? Not in list.
- mat? No.
- pat? No.

Also: “dad”? Ends in “-ad” — close but not exact rhyme. In strict rhyming, “bat” and “dad” do NOT rhyme because one ends in “-at”, the other in “-ad”.

Similarly, “sad”, “glad”, “bad” — all end in “-ad”, which is a different sound than “-at”.

So only: at, sat, hat

Wait — is “at” considered to rhyme with “bat”? Yes, in early education, they often accept it because the ending sound is the same.

Some might argue “at” is too short, but in phonics, it’s accepted.

Also, check: “right”? No. “night”? Ends in “-ight” — no.

So for bat: at, sat, hat

---

Now, words that rhyme with fat.

“Fat” ends with “-at” sound — same as “bat”!

So actually, “fat” and “bat” rhyme with each other — and with the same set of words: at, sat, hat.

But the worksheet has separate columns for “bat” and “fat” — meaning we should put the same rhyming words in both? Or maybe they want us to realize that “bat” and “fat” rhyme with each other and with the same words.

Looking back at the instruction: “Find and write the words that rhyme in the table below!”

And then we have three boxes labeled: book, bat, fat.

So likely, we are to sort the words into groups based on which of these three they rhyme with.

Since “bat” and “fat” rhyme with each other, any word that rhymes with “bat” also rhymes with “fat”.

So for fat column, we would also put: at, sat, hat

But wait — that would mean the same words go in two columns. Is that allowed? Probably yes, since the task is to find words that rhyme with each header.

Alternatively, maybe the worksheet expects us to notice that “bat” and “fat” are in the same rhyme family, so we can list the same words under both.

But let’s check if there are any words that rhyme with “fat” but not “bat”? Unlikely, since they rhyme with each other.

Perhaps the worksheet made a mistake? Or maybe it’s intentional to reinforce that multiple headers can share rhyming words.

Another thought: maybe “fat” is meant to be grouped with “cat”, “mat”, etc., but those aren’t in the list.

Looking again at the word list, are there any other “-at” words? We have: at, sat, hat — that’s all.

What about “that”? Not in list.

So for fat: at, sat, hat — same as for bat.

But now, let’s see if there’s another interpretation.

Wait — perhaps the three columns are for three different rhyme families, and “bat” and “fat” are examples of the same family, so we should put the rhyming words under one of them? But the worksheet has three separate boxes.

Maybe I misread — let me check the image description again.

The user said: the bottom part has three columns labeled: book, bat, fat.

And above is a grid of words.

Instruction: “Find and write the words that rhyme in the table below!” — probably meaning, for each of these three words, find which words from the grid rhyme with it.

So even if “bat” and “fat” rhyme with each other, we still list the rhyming words under each header.

That makes sense for a worksheet — to practice identifying rhymes for each given word.

So for book: look, hook, cook

For bat: at, sat, hat

For fat: at, sat, hat

But “at” is a bit unusual — let’s confirm if it’s acceptable.

In many kindergarten/first grade worksheets, “at” is considered to rhyme with “bat”, “cat”, etc.

For example, in word families, “-at” includes: at, bat, cat, fat, hat, mat, pat, rat, sat, tat, vat.

So yes, “at” is part of the “-at” family.

Therefore, it’s correct.

Now, are there any other words?

What about “right” and “night”? They rhyme with each other (-ight), but not with book, bat, or fat.

“gold”, “old”, “cold”, “told” — rhyme with each other (-old), but not with our targets.

“jump”, “hump” — rhyme with each other (-ump), but not with ours.

“keep”, “sleep”, “sheep” — rhyme with each other (-eep), but not with ours.

“star”, “car” — rhyme with each other (-ar), but not with ours.

“run” — alone? Or with “sun”? Not in list.

“dad”, “bad”, “sad”, “glad” — rhyme with each other (-ad), but not with “bat” or “fat” because “-ad” vs “-at” are different sounds.

In some accents, they might be similar, but in standard English phonics for kids, “bat” and “dad” do not rhyme.

For example, “bat” rhymes with “cat”, “hat”, “sat”

“Dad” rhymes with “bad”, “sad”, “glad”

So we keep them separate.

Therefore, final grouping:

Under book: look, hook, cook

Under bat: at, sat, hat

Under fat: at, sat, hat

But now, the word “look” appears twice in the original list — should we list it twice? Probably not, since it’s the same word. We list each unique word once per category.

Also, note that “cook” is in the list, and it rhymes with “book”.

Is there “took”? No.

So that’s all.

But wait — in the “book” column, should we include “book” itself? No, because the instruction is to find words from the list that rhyme with the header, and “book” is not in the list to choose from — the list has “look”, “hook”, “cook”, but not “book”.

The header is “book”, and we’re to find words in the grid that rhyme with it.

Similarly for others.

So no issue.

Now, let’s write the answer.

Final Answer:

For the "book" column: look, hook, cook
For the "bat" column: at, sat, hat
For the "fat" column: at, sat, hat

But to present it neatly as per the worksheet format.

Since the worksheet has three boxes, we fill each box with the rhyming words.

So:

book: look, hook, cook
bat: at, sat, hat
fat: at, sat, hat

I think that's correct.

But let me double-check if "at" is really intended. Maybe the worksheet expects only full words like "hat", "sat", and not "at". But "at" is in the list, and it does rhyme.

Perhaps in some curricula, they exclude very short words, but I doubt it.

Another thought: in the list, "at" is there, and it's commonly used in rhyming exercises.

For example, Dr. Seuss uses "at" in rhymes.

So I think it's fine.

Perhaps the "fat" column is a trick, and we should realize that "bat" and "fat" rhyme, so the words are the same.

Yes.

So final answer.
