What are homophones?

Homophones are words that sound the same. They are spelled differently and have different meanings.

Examples are the words which and witch or eight and ate.

Homophones can be a challenge for students. They require repeated practice and memorization.

I have created three word lists for you to use.

I tried to include the most common homophone sets in the first list so you would have a good list to start with. The second has slightly more challenging words and the third are a little more challenging.
