We added to our Word Wall again this week! Our Word Wall consists of homophones that are commonly misspelled. A homophone is a word that sounds like another word, but has a different meaning and is spelled differently.
I updated a paper copy that was sent home. Keep it where your child does homework for easy reference. Once a homophone is on the Word Wall, I expect it to be spelled correctly in children's work.
*You can also find a copy on our classroom website.
We learned three new sets:
mail - Something delivered to your house by the post office.
male - A boy or man
***********************************
mind - The part of your body that thinks
mined - Rocks or minerals that have been dug up from the ground
***********************************
find - To locate something
fined - To be charged a fee for something done wrong
