What do 3rd Grade students learn about homophones?

Words that sound the same but are spelled differently. At 3rd Grade, our resources focus on: choosing between to, too and two; choosing between there, their and they're; choosing the right homophone from meaning; using homophones in sentences.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Monday: read and copy the words. Wednesday: fill-the-gap and sentences. Friday: test.
  2. Say the word, say the sounds, write the word, check.
