"Dear Deer... Love, Aunt Ant"

This week we are working with "eer, ear, & ere," words. Naturally, this drew our attention to fun homophones such as deer/dear, and hear/here. We also have started our lesson on coins so cent/scent was another fun pair (/pear) to talk about!

Dear Deer by: Gene Barretta is a cute story that includes many creative homophones. Be prepared to help do some explaining to your students -they are very funny but some of them get a bit confusing! 

I also found some great FREEBIES to use along with our homophones lessons this week. Here they are for your students' enjoyment:
