Alphabetical Adventure Challenge

What Is the Alphabetical Adventure?

• An Alphabetical Adventure is a way to practice putting words in ABC Order while exploring new themes.
• It is a game where we look at a list of words and decide which one comes first, second, and third based on the alphabet.
• This challenge helps us master the path from A to Z.

The Rules of the Adventure To win the challenge, you must follow these three steps for every word:

1. The First Letter Rule: Look only at the very first letter of the word (Example: Zebra, Ant).
2. The Alphabet Song: Think of the ABC sequence. Does A come before Z? Yes!
3. The Sorting Step: Place the word starting with the earlier letter at the top of your list.

Challenge Level 1: Animals Let’s sort these three animals into the correct ABC order:

• Cat
• Bird
• Apple (Wait, that's a fruit! Let's use Ant instead).

The Solution:

1. Ant (A is the 1st letter of the alphabet).
2. Bird (B comes right after A).
3. Cat (C comes after B).

Challenge Level 2: The Toy Box What happens if the letters are far apart? Sort these:

• Yo-yo
• Doll
• Robot The Solution:

1. Doll (D is near the beginning).
2. Robot (R is in the middle).
3. Yo-yo (Y is near the very end).
