I'm telling you, this teacher blogging is really getting my creative juices flowing, trying to think of some different ideas. This week we will be learning homonyms, I am going to spend some time stalking blogs to see some of your ideas. The idea that came to my mind to help my students a little is to think of homonyms as echoes. I'll review what we learn about homonyms by saying certain words, if the students think that word is a homonym, they echo it after me. Still thinking it all through, but I thought they could start with 10 points a piece, if they echo correctly they get to keep their points, but if they answer incorrectly they lose one point. When I finish my list of words whoever has the most points left wins and will be the Homonym Whiz. Also, thinking of making up a worksheet to go along with the idea. Any other ideas or help, even help making up a worksheet would be greatly appreciated!

Haha, hey...I just like to make new friends! So, I know I don't have much going on here right now, but I would love to meet new teachers to share ideas with! Thank you to my followers, I will try not to disappoint you!
