Homophone Spelling Charts

By thisreadingmama 6 Comments

Quite often, my 3rd grader will ask when spelling/writing, “Which way do I spell it?” when it comes to those tricky homophones like there, their, and they’re. This past Valentine’s we explored homophones a bit, so he’s well aware that there are different ways to spell some words. To help him remember a bit better, I created some homophone spelling charts, individual charts as well as wall charts, and am sharing them today {free download at the END of this post.}

I have to honest and say that I can’t take full credit for this idea because it’s something I remember reading about years ago in Pat Cunningham’s book, Phonics They Use.

 

Homophone Spelling Charts

Included in the pack is a 1-page chart (both in color and in black/white), ideal for an individual student. My 3rd grader’s chart goes in his Writer’s Notebook.

In the spelling charts are 10 sets of tricky homophones, included in a phrase or sentence with a picture to accompany. This not only helps with the spelling of the homophones, but the meaning of the homophones as well.

If you’re in a classroom setting or teaching multiple children who could benefit from this, I’ve also included homophone spelling charts that are large enough for the wall, like the one you see below.

Homophone Spelling Charts for the Wall - Example - This Reading MamaCut them apart or keep them together on one piece of paper. I could totally see these being placed near a writing area. And you wouldn’t have to put up all 21 cards; just put up the ones that kids are struggling with the most in their writing/spellings.

        What I would love to have is a visual homophone dictionary, so when I’m tutoring, students would have a visual to help them understand the word meanings.

    Hi, the link sends you to a course instead of the homophone chart – can you please change it. I usually use you wonderful work with learning support for all ages from prep to year 5. They are absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much for making life easier for all of us.
    The children always wait to see what new thing I have for them and it is always fun for them to learn something new.

      Hmm…the link is working for me. Try using a different internet browser to see if that works better for you.
