Here are a few resources to help you teach kids about these words.
A fabulous picture book!
Dear Deer - A Book of Homophones by Gene Barretta
This book is great for kids in grades 1-3 and can even be used as a review for students in grades 4-5.
Some of the many homophones included are: ate and eight, tail and tale, see and sea, bear and bare, blew and blue, plus herd and heard.
The illustrations are fabulous! :)
