Double Meaning Vocabulary Worksheet
A worksheet to use in the classroom when identifying homonyms.

Students find a homonym, a word that has a double meaning, then use the worksheet to record:

- the part of speech for each meaning
- a sentence for each meaning

Print and laminate the worksheet for students to use repeatedly with a removable marker. Alternatively, provide each student with their own copy to paste into their workbooks.
