How to Use This Worksheet

Give your child a pencil and ask them to look carefully at each group of scrambled letters.

Encourage them to:

  • Rearrange the letters to make an autumn word.
  • Read the completed word aloud.
  • Think about what each word means.
  • Look for autumn objects around them.
  • Try the words independently before receiving help.

You can also turn this into a fun vocabulary activity by asking questions such as:

“What happens to leaves during autumn?”

“What can we find in a basket?”

“What color can pumpkins be?”

“Can you name another word related to fall?”

This makes the worksheet more than a spelling activity and encourages children to use their new vocabulary in conversation.
