Homophones | Words with the Same Pronunciation and Different Meanings - Boom Cards
Are your students struggling with homophones—words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings? This interactive digital Boom Card™ activity is the perfect tool to help them practice and master these tricky word pairs! Designed with English language learners in mind, this self-checking resource provides valuable homophones practice in a fun, visual, and engaging way.
Homophones can be challenging to learn and memorize, especially for ESL students who rely heavily on both pronunciation and context to understand meaning. This activity offers a great way to reinforce understanding using visual cues and context sentences to help students recognize which word belongs where.
Students will work through a set of cards, each featuring a sentence and two homophone choices. Their task is to select the correct homophone to complete the sentence based on context. It’s ideal for reinforcing both spelling and vocabulary while strengthening reading comprehension skills.
