Understanding Homophones: To, Too, Two

Emma was excited to see her friends at the park. She knew she had to arrive early if she wanted to play on the swings. She brought two apples with her, one for herself and one for her brother. As she approached the entrance, she thought, 'I am too early, but that’s okay.' Emma noticed her friends were already there, waiting by the slide. They waved enthusiastically, and she joined them without hesitation. Later, they decided to count the birds on the trees — there were two green parrots and too many sparrows to count. Emma smiled, feeling grateful for such a lovely day out.
