About the Worksheet

The "Syllable Sort" worksheet is a fun and engaging activity for young learners to practice identifying and counting syllables in words. This printable PDF resource features a set of colorful apples with printed words, and students are instructed to cut out the apples and glue them under the correct basket based on the number of syllables in each word.
