HOMOPHONES, Beginning Card Decks 1-6 = 54 Card Pairs + 32-Page Activity & Idea Book      

Homophones—words with the same pronunciation but different spellings and meanings—trouble English language learners, even native speakers! As they motivate and entertain, these innovative two-sided word-and-picture homophone card decks help clear up the confusion. Useful as flash cards or matching items—and for language-game play, the materials provide and reinforce instruction in spelling, pronunciation, phonics (the connections between sounds and letters) and vocabulary (word explanations and usage in context). The 9 homophone pairs of each Beginning Deck 1-6 are all high-frequency one-syllable words.

Accompanying the Beginning Decks is a 32-page reproducible teacher-resource Activity & Idea Book.  It explains why homophones exist in English, how to teach or learn them, and how to make productive use the materials in classes, with learning groups, and for independent study. There are sound/spelling charts, instructions for group activities, level-appropriate homophone quizzes and stories, and reference lists of homophone pairs at three levels of difficulty.
