HomophonesNotesandPracticethereweakhearwrite 1

The document discusses homophones related to week/weak, here/hear, write/right, and their/there. It provides examples of how to use each pair of homophones correctly in a sentence. For week/weak, examples show the difference between a period of 7 days and lacking strength. For here/hear, examples demonstrate place versus the sense of hearing. For write/right, examples distinguish composing writing from being correct. For their/there, examples show possession versus location. The document concludes with an activity asking the reader to identify the proper homophone in each sentence context.

Once a (week/weak) our teacher asks us to (right/write) in a journal. She tells us that
it will help with our spelling and grammar skills. We think she just likes making us
work hard! We do not like to learn when we come to school but she says that is what
we are (hear/here) for. The other students and I think she is too demanding. She gets
upset when people forget (their/there) books in (there/their) lockers. Also, she can
always (here/hear) everything we say! We are not even allowed to whisper in her class
(because/becose/beicause) it distracts her! She is not (week/weak) and will not let us
get away with anything in (hear/here). We would love to disagree with her but she
must be (write/right). After all, she is the teacher!
