 Word Sorts
Students will sort real and nonsense word family words.

The directions are to sound out and

read each word. ‘

Then using a crayon color of their

choice, color the real words (you can
have them color in the silly word a
different color if you want).

Then, students pick 3 real words and

3 silly words to write on the lines at
the bottom of the page.

They put the real word sunder the

first photograph and the silly word
under the clown photograph.

To challenge students that are ready,

they can pick 3 real words and use
them in a sentence on the back of the
paper. They can also draw a detailed
picture as well.
