Homophones in Sentences

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

"Homophones in Sentences" is written for 4th Grade (Ages 9-10), and it covers Common Core L.4.1.G. If your little one is a year younger but already steady here, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and homophones and homographs never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

FAQ

How do I use this homophones and homographs worksheet?

⌄

Have your child read each sentence aloud and say what the word should mean before choosing. Keep a list of the pairs they miss and post it near where they do homework. Check with the answer key.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

Find the wrong homophone in each sentence, like pair for pear, and write the right word. Homophones are words that sound the same but have different spellings and meanings, like knight and night. The directions on the page read: Circle the wrong homophone in each sentence. Then, write the correct word on the line. The page opens with a worked example, and the answer key shows every answer.

Can I use this homophones and homographs worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 4th Grade homophones and homographs, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

What is the difference between a homophone and a homograph?

⌄

Homophones sound the same but are spelled differently and mean different things, like sea and see. Homographs are spelled the same but have different meanings, like present (a gift) and present (to show).

How do I help my child with there, their and they're?

⌄

Try the swap test. If they are fits, write they're. If it shows belonging, write their. If it names a place, write there, which has the word here inside it. The there, their and they're sheet gives ten sentences to practice the test.

Which standard covers homophones in 4th grade?

⌄

CCSS L.4.1.G asks 4th graders to correctly use frequently confused words such as to, too and two or there and their.

Is there an answer key for each worksheet?

⌄

Yes. All four homophones and homographs sheets have an answer key.
