What educators are saying

I used this resource as a review with my students and they loved it. There were a few students who could not differentiate between a homophone and homograph and this resource helped them do just that.
"His activity provided a great example of each of the terms. I used it with my upper-level elementary students."

Description

Homophones, Homographs and Homonyms
This comprehensive unit on Homophones, Homographs, and Homonyms will help expand vocabulary for commonly confused words. We used a nature theme for this unit. Kids love nature subjects, so we included animal and plant photographs to keep their interest and assist with the presentation of these lessons.

Included:
This unit can be used in several grades.
• PowerPoint introduction to homophones, homographs and homonyms. A good resource to begin the unit. 36 pages.

• Bulletin Board - Homophones, homographs and homonyms with a Nature Theme.
Eight full page color nature photographs.
Labels with identification and homophone examples.

From The Developer:
I was a 2nd and 3rd grade elementary teacher for 33 years. I'm now a teaching librarian. It was always a struggle to find a good homophone, homograph and homonym resource, so I helped develop this comprehensive unit. Since this is an important subject to cover in early elementary years, we hope you find it useful.
