Multi-Meaning+Words

Multimeaning Words- TEKS
 * Use context to determine the relevant meaning of unfamiliar words or distinguish among multiple meaning words and homographs;
 * Identify and use antonyms, synonyms, homographs, and homophones;

** Multiple Meaning Words are words that have several meanings depending upon how they are used in a sentence. **
 * Homonyms**: group of words that __**share the same spelling and the same pronunciation but have different meanings,**__ usually as a result of the two words having different origins. s//talk// (which as a noun can mean part of a plant, and, as a verb, to follow/harass a person), //bear// (animal) and //bear// (carry), //left// (opposite of right) and //left//(past tense of leave). Some sources also consider the following trio of words to be homonyms, but others designate them as "only" homophones: //to//, //too// and //two//(actually, //to//, //to//, //too//, //too// and //two//, being "for the purpose of" as in "to make it easier", the opposite of "from", //also//, //excessively//, and "2", respectively).


 * Homophone** is a word that is __**[|pronounced] the same as another word but differs in meaning.**__ The words may be [|spelled] the same, such as [|//rose//] (flower) and[|//rose//] (past tense of "rise"), or differently, such as //[|carat] //, //[|caret] //, and //[|carrot] //, or //to//, //two// and //too//. **Homophones that are spelled the same are also both[|homographs] and [|homonyms] .**

Examples:shift //n//. (a change) shift //n//. (a period at work) shift //v//. (to move quickly)
 * Homograph** a group of words that **__share the same spelling but have different meanings__**. When spoken, the meanings may be distinguished by different pronunciations (in which case the words are also [|heteronyms] ) or they may not (in which case the words are also both [|homophones] and [|homonyms] [|[1] ]).

Objective: Students will be able to identify homographs and homophones..
 * __Introducing Multimeaning Words:__**

© Start your lesson with a joke from the joke list or use the following: //Why did the cat come down from the tree? Because it saw the tree bark.// Use this to start the discussion about words that //have multiple meanings// (See other jokes below)

© Make a T-Chart with pictures of a phone for homophone because they are words that sound the same but are spelled different and have different meanings (blue, blew) More examples on shared drive. For homograph make a camera to signify words that look the same, sound the same but have different meanings (bark, ring).

Use one of the additional activities to add to your chart.

Students recreate chart in their RR Journal and add to it throughout the year or add to the class chart that you made.
