Let’s go through the worksheet step by step.
We are matching words that rhyme — meaning they sound alike at the end.
Left column:
1. all
2. in
3. fun
4. cub
5. den
6. hot
7. fell
8. ring
9. far
10. row
Right column:
tub
crow
hen
sell
ball
sing
car
chin
bun
bought
We already have “all” matched to “ball” — that’s correct! They both end with the “-all” sound.
Now let’s match the rest:
2. “in” → rhymes with “chin” (both end with “-in”)
3. “fun” → rhymes with “bun” (both end with “-un”)
4. “cub” → rhymes with “tub” (both end with “-ub”)
5. “den” → rhymes with “hen” (both end with “-en”)
6. “hot” → rhymes with “bought” (both end with “-ot” sound — note: “bought” is pronounced like “bot”, so it rhymes)
7. “fell” → rhymes with “sell” (both end with “-ell”)
8. “ring” → rhymes with “sing” (both end with “-ing”)
9. “far” → rhymes with “car” (both end with “-ar”)
10. “row” → rhymes with “crow” (both end with “-ow”)
All matches are now complete and correct.
Final Answer:
1. all — ball
2. in — chin
3. fun — bun
4. cub — tub
5. den — hen
6. hot — bought
7. fell — sell
8. ring — sing
9. far — car
10. row — crow
