I spy with my eye. . . .



Homophones are words that sound the same but are not spelled the same and have different meanings. We have been thinking up as many different homophone pairs as we can. We made flash cards and are playing games with them. PBS' Between the Lions features a great homophone duet here.



One fun activity we did this week involved writing silling sentences using homophones. Here are some of them:

Two kids got in too much trouble and are going to the principal's office.

The boy tried to write with his right foot.

He had to tow the truck with his giant toe.

I read my homework until I was red in the face.


If you think of any good ones, we'd love to hear from you here. :)
