Alphabet Soup

Alphabet Soup is an activity in JumpStart 1st Grade (1999).

Description
Sarge will say a word. The player must arrange the letter noodles in the soup to create the word that Sarge says. After clicking and dragging the letters to spell out the word, the player must click on the bell to see if they spelled the word correctly.

Once the player has spelled out several words, they must put those words in alphabetical order. The words can be clicked on and dragged to change the order. Then the player must click on the bell when they think all of the words are in alphabetical order.

 * Once you spell out all of the words correctly, Sarge will say that it is time to alphabetize them. Click on a whole word and drag it into alphabetical order, then click again to put it into place. When all of the words are in alphabetical order, click the bell to see if they are correctly alphabetized.
