"Sh" sound practice worksheet with words and images for learning.

Let’s go step by step to fill in the blanks correctly.

---

Top Section: Tracing and Writing “sh” words

You are given these words with “sh” at the beginning:
- shot
- shell
- shut
- ship
- shop

Each word appears twice — once on the left, once on the right. You just need to trace or write them neatly on the lines provided. No missing letters here — it’s practice writing.

So for each row:
→ Write “shot” on both lines
→ Write “shell” on both lines
→ Write “shut” on both lines
→ Write “ship” on both lines
→ Write “shop” on both lines

*(This is handwriting practice — no puzzle solving needed here.)*

Middle Section: Fill in the Blanks with Pictures

We look at each picture and figure out what word it shows, then fill in the missing letters (usually starting with “sh”).

1. Picture of a store → “shop”
Given: _ _ op → We know it’s “shop”, so fill in: s h

2. Picture of a camera taking a photo → “shot”
Given: _ _ ot → Fill in: s h

3. Picture of a shed → “shed”
Given: _ _ ed → Fill in: s h

4. Picture of a sailing ship → “ship”
Given: _ _ ip → Fill in: s h

5. Picture of two hands shaking → “shake”
Given: s h a k e → Already filled! Just trace or copy if needed.

6. Picture of a shirt → “shirt”
Given: _ _ irt → Fill in: s h

7. Picture of a seashell → “shell”
Given: _ _ ell → Fill in: s h

8. Picture of a high-heeled shoe → “shoe”
Given: _ _ oe → Fill in: s h

Bottom Section: Block Letters & Sentence Completion

There are block patterns showing how to form letters. The third one already has “sh” written inside — you’re meant to recognize that “sh” makes the sound // like in “ship”.

Then there’s a sentence:

> “The shop sells shells.”

Below it, it says:

> “The _______________”

You are supposed to complete the sentence using the same pattern or idea. Since the first sentence talks about what the shop sells (“shells”), maybe you can make another simple sentence using an “sh” word.

But looking closely — the line under “The” is long, and above it are pictures of shells again. So likely, you’re meant to repeat or rephrase the sentence.

Actually, since the worksheet ends with “The” and a blank line, and the previous sentence was “The shop sells shells.” — perhaps they want you to write the same sentence again? Or maybe start a new one?

Wait — let’s check the very bottom: It says “© Studyladder” — this is a standard phonics worksheet focusing on “sh” digraph.

Looking at the structure: After “The shop sells shells.” there’s a new line starting with “The” and a long blank. This is probably meant for the student to write their own sentence using an “sh” word — OR — more likely, since all other parts are guided, maybe it’s a trick and you just leave it? But no — in worksheets like this, sometimes they expect you to copy the sentence or finish it logically.

BUT — notice: In the top section, you wrote “shop” and “shells”. In the middle, you filled in “shop”, “shot”, “shed”, “ship”, “shirt”, “shell”, “shoe”. All “sh” words.

The last line starts with “The” — maybe it’s expecting: “The [something] [does something].”

Since the only full sentence given is “The shop sells shells.” — and below it is “The _________” — perhaps it’s a mistake? Or maybe you’re supposed to write “The shop sells shoes.” or “The ship has sails.” etc.

However, looking at the images next to the sentence — there are shell drawings again. So likely, the intended completion is to repeat or mirror the sentence.

But wait — actually, in many such worksheets, after giving a model sentence, they give a starter (“The”) and expect the child to write a similar sentence using vocabulary from the page.

Possible completions:
- The ship is big.
- The shoe is red.
- The shirt is blue.
- The shed is small.

But since the image next to the sentence shows SHELLS again — maybe: “The shells are pretty.” or “The shells are on the beach.”

However — let’s think simpler. Maybe it’s not asking for creativity — maybe it’s just a formatting thing? Look: The sentence “The shop sells shells.” is complete. Then below it, it says “The” and a long line — perhaps it’s meant for the student to write their NAME? But no — name is at the top.

Alternatively — could it be that the worksheet expects you to write the alphabet or something? Unlikely.

Wait — another possibility: In some versions of this worksheet, the last line is for writing the date or signature — but here, date is already at the top.

Actually — I think I overcomplicated it. Let me look again at the original layout description.

In the user’s image description, the last part is:

> The shop sells shells.
> The ________________________

And beside “The shop sells shells.” there are shell illustrations.

Given that this is a phonics worksheet focused on “sh”, and all exercises revolve around “sh” words, the most logical completion is to write another sentence starting with “The” and containing an “sh” word — preferably one used earlier.

Best choice: Use “ship” or “shoe” or “shirt”.

But since “shells” are pictured again, maybe: “The shells are colorful.” — but that doesn’t use “sh” as initial digraph in a new way.

Actually — simplest answer: Perhaps the worksheet intends for you to write “The shop sells shells.” again? But that seems redundant.

Wait — look at the block letter section above: There are four blocks. Third one has “sh” inside. Fourth one has a circle — maybe indicating where to put a letter? Not sure.

Another thought: Maybe the last line is for writing the word “shells” again? But it starts with “The”.

I think the safest, most appropriate answer for a young student is to complete the sentence with a simple “sh” word they’ve practiced.

Let’s pick “ship” — because it’s common and was used earlier.

Final decision: Write “The ship is fast.” or “The ship sails.” — but to keep it very simple and match the style of “The shop sells shells.” — which is Subject + Verb + Object — we can do:

“The ship carries cargo.” — too hard.

“The shoe is new.” — good.

“The shirt is clean.” — also good.

But since the picture next to the sentence is SHELLS — maybe: “The shells are shiny.” — uses “sh” in “shiny”? Wait — “shiny” starts with “sh” — yes!

“Shiny” is an “sh” word! And it describes shells well.

So: “The shells are shiny.” — perfect.

But does the worksheet allow adjectives? Yes — “shell” is noun, “shiny” is adjective — both start with “sh”.

Alternatively, to stick strictly to nouns/verbs from the list: “The shop sells shoes.” — also valid.

But since the illustration is shells, I’ll go with shells.

Actually — let’s check: In the middle section, “shell” is used. In the top, “shells”. So plural is fine.

Thus, best completion: “The shells are shiny.”

But wait — is “shiny” taught here? Not explicitly — but it’s a natural extension.

To be ultra-safe, use only words from the worksheet: shop, shot, shell, shut, ship, shake, shirt, shoe, shed.

So: “The ship is here.” — boring.

“The shoe fits.” — okay.

“The shirt hangs.” — odd.

“The shed holds tools.” — too complex.

Actually — simplest: Repeat the structure: “The [noun] [verb] [object].”

From the list: “The shop sells shells.” → already done.

Next: “The ship sails seas.” — not great.

How about: “The shoe goes on foot.” — no.

Perhaps: “The shell is on sand.” — acceptable.

But I think for a Grade 1 level, they might accept even: “The sh...” and let the child invent.

However, since we must provide a final answer, and based on common worksheet expectations, I believe the intended answer is to write a sentence using an “sh” word — and since “shells” are pictured, and “shiny” is a descriptive “sh” word, I’ll go with that.

But let’s double-check: Is there any clue in the block letters? The fourth block has a circle — maybe indicating “o” — so “sho...” — like “shoe” or “shop”.

Ah! That’s it! The block letters section:

First three blocks are empty rectangles — probably for tracing or building letters.

Third block has “sh” written inside — teaching the digraph.

Fourth block has a circle in the second position — suggesting the letter “o” — so combined with “sh”, it becomes “sho” — which leads to “shop” or “shoe”.

Therefore, the last sentence starting with “The” is likely meant to be completed with a word starting with “sho” — i.e., “shop” or “shoe”.

Since “shop” was already used in “The shop sells shells.” — maybe now use “shoe”.

So: “The shoe is red.” or “The shoe is big.”

But to match the object-sell structure: “The shop sells shoes.” — that works perfectly!

Yes! That’s consistent: First sentence: The shop sells shells. Second sentence: The shop sells shoes.

Uses “shop” again, and “shoes” — which is the plural of “shoe”, an “sh” word from the middle section.

Also, “shoes” is depicted in the middle section (high heel).

Perfect.

So final completion: “The shop sells shoes.”

Now, compiling everything for Final Answer.

Note: For the tracing/writing sections, since they are mechanical, we don’t include them in “final answer” unless specified. The puzzles are the fill-in-the-blank and sentence completion.

But the user said “solve the problem accurately” — and the main problems are:

1. Fill in the blanks in the grid with “sh”
2. Complete the sentence at the bottom.

For the grid:

Row 1 (pictures):
- shop → sh
- shot → sh
- shed → sh
- ship → sh

Row 2 (pictures):
- shake → already given
- shirt → sh
- shell → sh
- shoe → sh

Sentence: “The shop sells shoes.”

---

Final Answer:

For the fill-in-the-blank pictures:

- _ _ op → sh
- _ _ ot → sh
- _ _ ed → sh
- _ _ ip → sh
- _ _ irt → sh
- _ _ ell → sh
- _ _ oe → sh

For the sentence at the bottom:

The shop sells shoes.

*(Note: "The shells are shiny." is also acceptable, but "The shop sells shoes." better matches the worksheet's pattern and uses only previously introduced vocabulary.)*
