Students practice identifying homographs by reading sentences and circling the picture that represents the correct definition.

I need to solve this homographs worksheet. Let me work through each sentence carefully to match it with the correct picture.

Step 1: Understanding what homographs are
Homographs are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings. In this worksheet, I need to identify which meaning of each word is being used in the sentence and circle the matching picture.

Step 2: Working through each question

Question 1: "Bats are nocturnal because they can see at night time."
- The word "bats" here refers to the flying mammals (animals), not baseball bats
- Looking at the pictures: one shows a baseball bat, the other shows a flying bat (animal)
- Answer: The flying bat picture

Question 2: "I had toast with grape jam for breakfast."
- The word "jam" here means fruit preserve/spread, not traffic congestion or squeezing
- Looking at the pictures: one shows champagne glasses (celebration), the other shows a jar of jam/preserve
- Answer: The jar of jam picture

Question 3: "Park under the shade."
- The word "park" here means to stop/leave a vehicle, not a public park/green space
- Looking at the pictures: one shows a truck/vehicle, the other shows a park bench with trees
- Answer: The truck/vehicle picture

Question 4: "Rocky barks when strangers are near."
- The word "barks" here refers to a dog making sounds, not tree bark
- Looking at the pictures: one shows a tree, the other shows a dog
- Answer: The dog picture

Question 5: "Mom and dad went on a ship for their anniversary."
- The word "ship" here means a boat/vessel for water travel, not to send something
- Looking at the pictures: one shows a box/package, the other shows a cruise ship
- Answer: The cruise ship picture

Question 6: "The wave was rougher than yesterday."
- The word "wave" here refers to ocean waves, not waving hello/goodbye
- Looking at the pictures: one shows a person waving, the other shows ocean waves
- Answer: The ocean waves picture

Let me verify my answers:
1. Bats (animal) ✓
2. Jam (fruit preserve) ✓
3. Park (vehicle) ✓
4. Barks (dog sound) ✓
5. Ship (boat) ✓
6. Wave (ocean) ✓

All answers make sense based on the context clues in each sentence.
