72 Homonyms - Ideas for Use


  • Print and laminate - display on word wall for student writing and reading reference and 'playing with words' games...

  • Print and laminate and use for matching games such as concentration, and matching 'snap'.

  • Classify the words into specific grapheme / phonic groups - for example group all words with the 'e' sound...(ey, ee, ea....)- use phonics charts as a reference..

  • Hand each child a card - all children then have to find their matching pair...

  • Go on a 'Homonym Hunt' - find homonyms in reading books and environmental print - cut and paste homonyms out of magazines.

  • Again - use the '101 Flashcard Activities' document for more terrific ideas for great word play activities...using word cards.

  • Make smaller copies of the non colour coded for children to cut, match, and paste homonym pairs. Children colour in the differing grapheme sounds...

  • Make the words up on the phonics flip chart - great way to emphasise the different sound spellings.

  • I saw an interesting post on Pinterest the other day, showing a plastic, sandwich size, zip-lock bag that had had a piece of duct tape run along the base. The duct tape provided reinforcing that allowed holes to be punched through the bag for storage in a binder. I imagine you could run the tape down the side of larger zip-lock bags for a similar effect. This may not solve all your storage issues, but if there\'s just a few small games to go with a unit that\'s otherwise stored in a binder, it might help!

  • I was just thinking the other day that I needed some matching cards for numbers over 100 then today I came across the new parts of speech posters and thought I\'d check out the \"What\'s New\" section and there I found exactly what I had been wanting. Thank you so much for your wonderful resources. This is the first place I check when looking for resources and I\'ve been able to build a great collection since moving to the lower school grades last year. Thanks again!
