Teacher wants below words sorted by Pattern. What does that mean? here are the words: did, fin, pick, nine, pipe, rip, mix, five, side, hike, cape, made, because, off, picture, deaf, language, signing, cultures, relatives, celebrate. We don't know where to begin.

This means that you look at the words, see which one of the few are of the same "type". FOr instance, you see that "five" and "nine" are numbers. "fin, pipe, cape, picture" etc are nouns. There are verbs inside as well. Try to sort it out that way. :)
