ESL - English PowerPoints: Homophones - Free Printable

I will solve this homophone worksheet by examining each picture and selecting the correct word from the pair provided. I'll go through them one by one.

First, I'll look at the top row to get started.

- First box (top left): The image shows a crescent moon and stars, which represents "night". The options are "night / knight". "Night" is the correct homophone for this image.
- Second box: The image shows a bear holding a honey pot. The options are "bare / bear". "Bear" is the correct homophone.
- Third box: The image shows a witch with a hat and broom. The options are "which / witch". "Witch" is the correct homophone.
- Fourth box: The image shows a rabbit. The options are "hair / bare". Neither "hair" nor "bare" directly matches a rabbit. However, "hare" is a homophone for "hair" and "bare", and rabbits are often confused with hares. Given the context, "hair" might be intended, but it's not a perfect match. Let me check if there's a better fit or if I need to reconsider.

Wait, let me re-examine the fourth box. The image is of a rabbit, and the options are "hair / bare". Neither seems to fit perfectly. Perhaps it's a trick, or maybe I need to think differently. Let me move on and come back to this.

- Fifth box (second row, first column): The image shows an envelope with a heart, representing "mail". The options are "mail / male". "Mail" is the correct homophone.
- Sixth box: The image shows a horse. The options are "hoarse / horse". "Horse" is the correct homophone.
- Seventh box: The image shows a sewing machine and fabric. The options are "so / sew". "Sew" is the correct homophone.
- Eighth box: The image shows the sun. The options are "sun / son". "Sun" is the correct homophone.

- Ninth box (third row, first column): The image shows a rabbit with a tail. The options are "tale / tail". "Tail" is the correct homophone.
- Tenth box: The image shows a flower. The options are "flower / flour". "Flower" is the correct homophone.
- Eleventh box: The image shows a person's waist. The options are "waste / waist". "Waist" is the correct homophone.
- Twelfth box: The image shows a piece of cake. The options are "peace / piece". "Piece" is the correct homophone.

- Thirteenth box (fourth row, first column): The image shows a throne. The options are "throne / thrown". "Throne" is the correct homophone.
- Fourteenth box: The image shows a mine or mining scene. The options are "mined / mind". "Mined" is the correct homophone.
- Fifteenth box: The image shows beans. The options are "been / bean". "Bean" is the correct homophone.
- Sixteenth box: The image shows a monster saying "bye". The options are "buy / bye". "Bye" is the correct homophone.

- Seventeenth box (fifth row, first column): The image shows a bucket with fish and a pail. The options are "pale / pail". "Pail" is the correct homophone.
- Eighteenth box: The image shows an island. The options are "isle / aisle". "Isle" is the correct homophone.
- Nineteenth box: The image shows a ship with sails. The options are "sale / sail". "Sail" is the correct homophone.
- Twentieth box: The image shows steel beams. The options are "steal / steel". "Steel" is the correct homophone.

Now, going back to the fourth box, which I was unsure about. The image is of a rabbit, and the options are "hair / bare". Since "hare" is a homophone for both "hair" and "bare", and rabbits are often associated with hares, it's likely that "hair" is intended as the correct answer, even though it's not a perfect match. Alternatively, it could be a mistake in the worksheet. However, given the context, I'll go with "hair" as the intended answer.

So, the correct homophones to underline are:
1. night
2. bear
3. witch
4. hair
5. mail
6. horse
7. sew
8. sun
9. tail
10. flower
11. waist
12. piece
13. throne
14. mined
15. bean
16. bye
17. pail
18. isle
19. sail
20. steel

This completes the solution to the homophone worksheet.
