play fun games that help them remember
the meanings and spellings of common
homophones they have already
encountered.
This set introduces 24 common Spanish
homophone pairs. Because many
homophones in Spanish are verb forms
that depend on usage, it is important
that students use each word in a sentence
during play to demonstrate comprehension.
For example, the verb haber has many
forms and some of those forms are part
of homophone pairs: habría/abría, hay/¡ay!,
haz/has.
Homophones are pairs or groups of
words that sound the same but have
different meanings and are spelled
differently. Homophones are easily
confused and, therefore, often
misspelled. By practicing these tricky
words, students learn to focus on word
meaning.
Managing the Spanish Homophone
Playing Cards
• Photocopy the Homophone Playing Cards
Key (side 2), which includes generalized
definitions of all the words. (The Key
doesn’t necessarily include every
meaning of a word, but encourages
students to explore meanings that are
familiar to them.) The copied Key can
serve as a handy reference during game
play, especially when a given meaning is
in dispute, and eliminates the need for a
dictionary during play. Laminate the Key
for repeated use.
• Photocopy and cut out the games you
want to play from the Homophone Card
Games page for every group or pair of
players. Laminate the game instructions
for repeated use.
With Spanish Homophone Playing
Cards, students with a general
knowledge of homophones—in the first

students to come up with their own homophone pairs, creating lists generated from
what they find in word hunts and in their own vocabularies.
Challenge students to use each homophone in a pair correctly in a sentence:
Yo encontré un tubo viejo.
El niño no tuvo tiempo de terminar su tarea.
Mi papá tuvo que arreglar el tubo.
Homophone Card Games
These instructions for card games your students will love can be copied and
laminated (see Managing the Homophone Playing Cards). Keep the instructions
nearby during the game, along with the Homophone Playing Cards Key.
Homophone Rummy
Two to six players
Object of the game: To use all the cards in your hand to make homophone pairs
and go out first.
1. Shuffle the deck and deal 7 cards to each player. (If working with two players,
deal 8 or 9 cards to each.) Turn over the top card and place it next to the
deck. This will be the discard pile.
2. All players check their hands for pairs of homophones and place the pairs
face up on the table.
3. Go around the table and have the players name their pairs. Players get credit
for a pair only if they can give the meanings of both words or correctly use
each word in a sentence. (This rule applies throughout the game.) Another
player may challenge the two meanings given for a pair, and the players must
use the Homophone Playing Card Key to check it. If the player has given an
incorrect meaning, that pair is removed from the game.
4. Choose who goes first. Player 1 either draws the showing (discarded) card or
draws from the deck, trying to make a homophone match with a card in hand.
If Player 1 can make a pair, Player 1 lays down the pair, gives the homophones’
meaning, and then discards. If not, Player 1 can only discard, and the turn is
over; Player 2 take a turn.
5. Play continues until one player has no more cards in hand. All the players
count their pairs. The winner is the player with the most pairs.
Other Rules
As players lay cards on the discard pile, they should leave the previous card
showing. When a player wants to make a match by drawing a card that was not

the last one discarded, all the cards must be picked up after it as well.
The player must make a match using the first card picked up.
Variations:
• Give two points for each homophone pair or just one point if the player
gives the correct meaning for one of the words but not the other.
• Each player replenishes the cards in hand after every turn, bringing the
hand back up to seven (or eight or nine) cards. The game is over when the
deck runs out. Players count their pairs to determine the winner.
• Play the game in several rounds, keeping track of points from round to
round. The winner is the player who reaches a score, such as 100, first.
Homophone Shuffle
Two or more players
Additional materials: Lined paper folded lengthwise, pencil, dictionary
1. The players write their names at the top of the columns on the folded
paper or sort grid. This will be a recording sheet.
2. Player 1 selects five or more homophone pairs and mixes up the cards.
Player 1 holds up the cards with the backs facing Player 2, and asks
Player 2 to pick a card.
3. Player 2 picks a card, turns it over, and reads the word aloud. Player 2
must say what the word means or use it in a sentence. If it is the correct
meaning of the word, Player 2 writes the word in the column under Player
2’s name. Players can challenge the meaning given. If the answer is wrong,
Player 2 does not get to write the word the column. If the players
disagree on the meaning, they can look up the word.
4. Player 1 sorts and puts back the homophone pairs, and Player 2 takes
a turn choosing pairs, shuffling them, and holding them up for the
next player.
5. The first player to fill every line in the column is the winner.
