This week, we’re thinking about homophones – words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings.
We need children in Year 4 to not only know how to spell these words but to also have the skill of knowing which word is the right one to use at the right time!
hear/here
break/brake
heel/heal/he’ll
berry/bury
whether/weather
buy/bye/by
there/their/they’re
to/too/two
where/wear/were
who’s/whose
