Rhyming Robot Rhyming Words for Grade 1

Words that sound similar are rhyming words.  Rhyming words have different beginning sounds but have similar ending sounds. A rhyme is thus defined as a repetition of similar sounds in the final syllables of any word. Rhyming words are found commonly in children’s poems. These are used as embellishments to heighten the beauty of the sentences typically in verses or songs. Words such as ‘wall’ and ‘fall’ in the famous nursery rhyme ‘Humpty-Dumpty’ are rhyming words since the last syllables of both words have the same sounds.

To find two rhyming words makes for a great exercise for kids. It allows them to engage their mind to find two words that produce similar sounds. It is a very effective way to increase their vocabulary. The more words they know, the better they’ll be at finding words that rhyme with one another.
