High-Fives for Homophones

High-Fives for Homophones is a terrific book for third and fourth graders to read with a parent, or alone, based on reading level or family preference. Educators could read aloud in class during a unit on homophones; a chapter a day over consecutive days. Fifth graders could use as reinforcement of former class usage. All would be provided with a delightful story. A great resource for parents; a tremendous supplement to classroom work per comments from parents and children: "This story definitely reinforces what Nicholas is working on in school. He just had a spelling test on homophones. It is a nice blend of narrative and dialogue. We had fun, it built curiosity and awareness, and some academic competition. Here are 8 more sets, if you want to add them to your list!" Jennifer Ferguson, Nicholas' Mom "It was really cool to hear a story about a friend and other boys around my age. It was great to read about two neighbors." Nicholas Ferguson, 3rd grader, Cicero, NY "The story reinforced homophone usage. It would be a fun game to use in the car." Sue T., Allison's Mom "It was really good!"
