Download or read book How to Spell Homophones written by Pat Lessie and published by Teacher Created Resources. This book was released on 1999 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book a homophone is a word which sounds the same as another word but has a different spelling or meaning. An emphasis on reading helps students learn homophones in context. To correct chronic mistakes, some reinforcement in the form of grammar exercises may be necessary, to which end, several short drills are included in this book. The text also contains a number of homophone stories to provide practice in familiarising students with many of the homophones luring in the English language. These are arranged in order of progressing difficulty, depending on factors of length, number of corrections and subject matter. The stories may be copied for student use and be worked on individually or in pairs. An answer key is included.
