 Homophones  Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelt differently and have different meanings. e.g. to, too and two.  The spelling of "rose" (past tense of "rise") and "rose" (the flower) appear in the same place in the dictionary. The goal of this concept is to simply to make communicators aware that the same sounding words are indefinite.

 Activity 1  Choose the correct homophone to complete this sentence.  (a) The boy put shampoo on his (hare/hair).  (b) Mum put some (flower/flour) in the cake mix.  (c) James didn't have a very good (nights/knights) sleep.  (d) A rabbit is a bit like a (hare/hair).  (e) Tony got chased by a large (bare/bear).
