                                              “Homophones”

Hello guys! Today the task is not too difficult. As you know last week we did not have the chance to work at school with Language and in order to go in advance we are going to learn how “Homophones” work and how they work.

Explanation:

What Are Homophones?

Homophones are words that are pronounced the same but they have different meanings and are usually spelled differently as well. They usually occur in groups of two but sometimes they can be three or four in a group. It’s important to recognize and identify the most common homophones because the spelling can change the entire meaning of a sentence! Here is a list of the most common homophones.

Examples of homphones:

Air - heir	Brake - break
Be – bee	Sent - cent
Buy – by	Hear - here
Cell - sell	Mail - male

Let’s use a few in sentences:

Be careful around the figurines because they break easily.

Press gently on the brake to slow the car down.

We saw a grizzly bear while vacationing in the mountains.

I can’t bear this burden any longer.

 Activity:

To practice the use of homophones use the following link: "Homophones"    read the list of examples from the website and then answer the test . After that, copy your answer in a word document and sent them with your score to may platform eamil. that´s it!!!
