Students will be able to give an example of two meanings of a multiple meaning word.
Introduction
(10 minutes)
Have students come to a group area.
Write the word "homograph" on the board.
Give students the definition of a homograph and dissect the word: "homo" means same, while "graph" means write.
Give an example of a homograph and write it on the board and discuss its various definitions.
Ask students to come up with other examples and help with definitions as they are presented.
Show them the example book and tell them, "Now, you are going to pick six of these homographs and make a book. On each page, you will write the homograph you choose twice and draw a picture to show me two definitions of the homograph."
