16 match-up puzzles to use in the classroom when identifying homonyms.

Use this teaching resource when building vocabulary in the classroom.

Students complete each puzzle by matching-up the homonym with its two matching pictures that represent the same sound and are spelt the same but have different meanings.

Print, cut and laminate each puzzle piece, then in small groups, ask the students to solve each puzzle.

A great spelling activity or independent task to use as part of your literacy rotations.

The homonyms in this resource include:

  • bark (on a tree and the sound of a dog)
  • wave (in the ocean and the action made with a hand)
  • glasses (worn on the face to improve sight and an object for drinking out of)
