Making videos about homophones can be a great way for trainees to keep in mind and discover how to use them. On Next Vista for Learning youll find this student-produced video description of the distinctions between their, there, and theyre.

GCF Learn Free uses this 90 second video description of when to use there, theyre, and their. The video uses little GI Joe characters to discuss the appropriate use of each word.

That said, my error presented a good opportunity to collect some short video lessons about the differences in between “there,” “their,” and “theyre” and when to utilize every one..
