Which task demonstrates rhyme judgment between two words?

• A. Matches rhyming picture cards.
• B. Chants spontaneously.
• C. Do bear and chair rhyme?
• D. Completes the missing rhyming word.

Answer: (C)

Rhyme judgment is the ability to decide whether two words share the same ending sound. The task Do bear and chair rhyme? directly asks you to judge the relationship between two specific words, so it cleanly tests this skill. Bear and chair end with the same ending sound, so they rhyme, making this a straightforward yes/no decision about their rhyme status.

Other tasks involve different skills: matching rhyming picture cards requires identifying rhymes within a set of items (recognition in a pairing format) rather than judging a pair of words, chanting focuses on fluency and rhythm, and completing the missing rhyming word asks you to produce a word that rhymes with a given one (rhyming production rather than judgment).
