Here’s Why These Worksheets Work (How I teach Them)
When I first started teaching homophones to my kids, I remember how confused they’d get. It was like we were speaking in circles! So, I came up with a few tricks to help them remember the differences, like using silly sentences or rhymes. For example, when teaching "there" vs. "their," I’d say, “There is for location because it has the word here in it.” Little memory aids like that go a long way!
