Step-by-step solution for: Graduate Worksheet - Twisty Noodle
Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a list of events that happen before graduation, but they’re out of order. We need to put them in alphabetical order — meaning we sort the words based on how they appear in the dictionary (A to Z).
The events listed are:
- I will graduate on the _______ 2026.
- I feel about the events you do?
- Happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
- Last year me
- I will go to ________ School
- I want to __________
- Saturday at ____
Wait — actually, looking again, the instruction says:
“Put the words in alphabetical order.”
And then below each cloud, there are numbered blanks (1 through 7) where we write the sorted phrases.
But note: The phrases themselves contain multiple words. However, for alphabetical ordering of phrases, we usually look at the first word of each phrase. If two phrases start with the same word, we look at the second word, and so on.
So let’s list all 7 phrases clearly:
1. I will graduate on the _______ 2026.
2. I feel about the events you do?
3. Happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
4. Last year me
5. I will go to ________ School
6. I want to __________
7. Saturday at ____
Now, to sort these alphabetically, we ignore capitalization for sorting purposes (unless specified otherwise — here it’s not, so we treat “Happy” as “happy”, etc.).
Let’s rewrite each phrase starting with its first word in lowercase for comparison:
- i will graduate on the _______ 2026.
- i feel about the events you do?
- happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
- last year me
- i will go to ________ school
- i want to __________
- saturday at ____
Now, group by first letter:
Starting with ‘h’:
→ happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
Starting with ‘i’:
→ i will graduate on the _______ 2026.
→ i feel about the events you do?
→ i will go to ________ school
→ i want to __________
Starting with ‘l’:
→ last year me
Starting with ‘s’:
→ saturday at ____
Now, within the ‘i’ group, we need to sort by the second word:
Compare:
- i will graduate... → second word: “will”
- i feel... → second word: “feel”
- i will go... → second word: “will”
- i want... → second word: “want”
Alphabetical order of second words:
“feel” comes before “want”, which comes before “will”.
So among the ‘i’ phrases:
First: “i feel about the events you do?”
Then: “i want to __________”
Then: “i will graduate on the _______ 2026.” and “i will go to ________ school” — both have “will” as second word.
Now compare third word for those two:
- i will graduate... → third word: “graduate”
- i will go... → third word: “go”
“go” comes before “graduate” alphabetically.
So full order for ‘i’ group:
1. i feel about the events you do?
2. i want to __________
3. i will go to ________ school
4. i will graduate on the _______ 2026.
Now combine all groups in order:
First: ‘h’ → happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
Then: ‘i’ group in order above
Then: ‘l’ → last year me
Then: ‘s’ → saturday at ____
So overall alphabetical order:
1. Happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
2. I feel about the events you do?
3. I want to __________
4. I will go to ________ School
5. I will graduate on the _______ 2026.
6. Last year me
7. Saturday at ____
Wait — but note: In the original, some phrases start with capital letters. But since we’re doing alphabetical order, we should consider the actual spelling regardless of case. However, when writing the final answer, we keep the original capitalization as shown in the image.
Also, check if “Last year me” starts with “L” — yes, and “Saturday” with “S”. So after all “I” phrases, “Last” comes next, then “Saturday”.
But wait — is “Happy” considered before “I”? Yes, because H comes before I.
Similarly, L comes after I, S comes after L.
So our sorted list is correct.
Now, assign numbers 1 to 7 accordingly:
1. Happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
2. I feel about the events you do?
3. I want to __________
4. I will go to ________ School
5. I will graduate on the _______ 2026.
6. Last year me
7. Saturday at ____
Double-check:
- H (Happy) → 1
- I (I feel) → 2
- I (I want) → 3
- I (I will go) → 4
- I (I will graduate) → 5
- L (Last) → 6
- S (Saturday) → 7
Yes, that’s correct.
Final Answer:
1. Happy and scared nervous hopeful excited
2. I feel about the events you do?
3. I want to __________
4. I will go to ________ School
5. I will graduate on the _______ 2026.
6. Last year me
