Figurative Language: The Punny Editor

About this Worksheet:

Puns are a fun way to learn about figurative language. In this worksheet, your student will identify the hidden homophone that create a joke in each sentence. By underlining the pun and providing the alternative spelling, students will practice recognizing how words that sound the same can change the meaning and tone of a sentence. It’s compatible with Common Core Standards for 8th grade, although you may find it helpful for other students as well.
