Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How can I tell which homophone spelling to use in KS3 English?

Look closely at the meaning of the sentence and ask what the writer is talking about. Once you know the meaning, choose the spelling that matches it, then check in a dictionary if needed.

What are the best ways to practise KS3 spelling at home?

Good practice methods include short daily spelling sessions, using look-cover-write-check, keeping a personal word list, and reading regularly so you see correct spellings in real stories and articles.

Why is it important to avoid spelling mistakes in homophones?

Mixing up homophones can change the meaning of a sentence and confuse the reader. Correct homophone spelling helps your writing look more professional in classwork, homework and exams.
