Homophones Worksheet
A free, printable homophones worksheet for 2nd to 4th grade. Your child picks the right homophone, fixes mistakes and matches meanings. Answer key included.
What's inside
- Page 1: circle the right homophone in 8 sentences, then fix 4 mistakes.
- Page 2: write the meaning of 4 homophone pairs and use one in a sentence.
- Page 3: answer key.
How to use it
- Teach or review the rule first with the homophones lesson. It takes about 10 minutes.
- Read the directions for each part out loud. Early readers can point while you read.
- Check Part A together before your child goes on, so any confusion gets fixed early.
- Use the answer key on the last page.
Prints on US Letter paper (8.5 × 11 in). No sign-up needed.
Tips for doing it together
- Keep it short. One page a day is plenty for most young children, and two short sessions beat one long one.
- Let your child read each sentence out loud before answering. Many mistakes get caught by ear.
- Mark a mistake with a small dot instead of an X, and let your child find and fix it. That's where the learning happens.
What your child is practicing
Homophones sound the same but have different spellings and meanings, like there, their and they're. 4th graders are expected to use common ones correctly.
