What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Match look-alike words such as angel and angle or quiet and quite to meanings, then find them in a grid. The directions on the page read: Write the word from the bank that matches each meaning. Then find that word in the grid and circle it. Words run across, down, or diagonally, and never backward. An answer key is included.
Can I use this identify correct spelling worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade spelling, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.
How many worksheets are there?
⌄
There are 8, and all have answer keys.
What kinds of tasks are there?

Students unscramble words, circle correct homophones, find look-alike words in a grid and proofread a travel journal.
Do the anagram sheets give clues?
⌄
Yes. Each scrambled word has a meaning clue, and a capital letter marks the first letter.
