Just a little seed...



Hi!
This week we are finally back at school.
Today the teachers planted a 'seed' of knowledge of homophones.
Homophones are words that sound the same.
So I decided to do three words that sound the same but have a completely different meaning.
Their, there and they're.
If you already know the difference then this can just be a reminder.
Here's the poster I made:


That was the poster I made, I hope you liked it.
If you didn't know what the differences were then I hope this helped.
If you did then hopefully this was a good reminder.
I already knew the differences between them but I think that sometimes I still used the wrong one and I also learnt what homophones are.
Did you know this? Did you learn anything new? Can you think of different homophones?
Comment what you think about this.
Until next time...
Bye!

  1. Hello Abby,
    It is Albin here.

    Homophones are really fascinating. I also really liked your dlo. It was like custom made. Those colours matched really well.

    In future maybe you could add some more examples of each Homophones so that the reader can actually understand what it means.

    Kind regards,
    Albin.

  2. Kia ora Abby,

    We like how you set your poster. It was clear with the different sentences.

    We've also finished some activities on this homophone. We have a class poster with them on and 'their' has a person in it to remind us it's if something belongs to them.

    We can think of 'to, too and two' and 'hair, here and hare'.

    What other ones have you learnt? Can you use them properly when you write?

  3. Hello Abby!
    I really like this blog post you made.
    I think that in this post you have really described what a homophone is.
    I also like your poster I love all of the colours you used!
    For people who don't know what a homophone is I think this will help them alot!
    Your next step learning would be to make the words from the blog post more visually appealing because some of the words are a we bit scattered but other than that I think this was Great!
    Kind regards -Lily
