On Sunday morning I was composing in a bit of a rush and stopped working to see a mistake in the title of my post about using the netstat command to see the connections a computer is making to external sites and devices. I know the difference and have actually taught the distinction to students for as long as I can remember.

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

Free School uses this brief, to-the-point description of homophones. The video isnt going to win any awards for creativity, but it is effective in its shipment of the rules for using their, theyre, and there..

GCF Learn Free offers this 90 2nd video description of when to utilize there, theyre, and their. The video uses little GI Joe characters to describe the right usage of each word. Judging by the YouTube remarks listed below the video a lot of individuals like the technique of the video but some dont like the use a military style for the video.
