- Remind students that homophones are words that sound the same, but have different spellings and meanings.
- Label a piece of chart paper with the heading "homophones" and write the definition below the heading.
- Write a couple of examples of homophones on the chart paper, like "your"/"you're" and "beet"/"beat".
- Ask students to volunteer other examples of homophones and record their answers on the chart paper.
