Sounds the Same: Easy Homophones for Class 1

This Grade 1 English worksheet helps young learners explore the fun world of homophones, words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings (like sun and son). Designed with engaging, child-friendly exercises such as match the pairs, fill in the blanks, sorting, MCQs, and sentence correction, this worksheet makes grammar learning interactive and memorable.

Why Homophones Matter in Grammar?

1. Homophones teach children how to listen carefully and choose the right spelling based on context.
2. They help improve reading comprehension and spelling accuracy.
3. They build word awareness by showing how meaning changes with spelling.
4. They prepare students for advanced vocabulary and grammar lessons in higher grades.
