The students will understand common homophones, correctly use them in sentences, and identify proper and improper usage. The lesson involves interactive activities using an e-board to match homophones and complete sentences, followed by students writing their own sentences demonstrating skills learned. Students will be assessed informally during activities and formally through a worksheet requiring correct homophone usage, spelling, grammar, and justification of answers.
