About:

This printable phonics worksheet teaches Grades 3–4 students about closed syllables—syllables ending in a consonant with a short vowel sound. Students practice writing and dividing ten space-themed words (astronaut, spacecraft, collision, atmosphere, trajectory, and others), then rewrite sentences replacing underlined phrases with more advanced vocabulary from the word list. Works well for phonics instruction, handwriting reinforcement, or vocabulary enrichment.
