Free School uses this short, to-the-point explanation of homophones. The video isnt going to win any awards for imagination, however it works in its delivery of the rules for utilizing their, theyre, and there..

Making videos about homophones can be a great way for students to remember and learn how to use them. On Next Vista for Learning youll find this student-produced video explanation of the differences between their, there, and theyre.

On Sunday morning I was writing in a bit of a hurry and failed to see a mistake in the title of my post about utilizing the netstat command to see the connections a computer system is making to external sites and devices. I understand the difference and have taught the distinction to students for as long as I can keep in mind.

GCF Learn Free provides this 90 second video explanation of when to utilize there, theyre, and their. The video utilizes little GI Joe characters to discuss the correct use of each word. Judging by the YouTube remarks below the video many people like the method of the video but some do not like the usage a military style for the video.
