Homophones


a) Your and you’re are homophones. Why are they homophones?
Your and you're are homophones because they have the same punctuation but different meanings.


b) Explain IN YOUR OWN WORDS! (no copy and pasting) when should we use your and when should we use you’re?
You're this is when you describe someone else. Your this is when you are talking about the ownership of something.

c) Write 3 example sentences using your and 3 example sentences using you’re. These sentences should be about YOU and your life and not be copied and pasted.

"Your clock is so loud."
"Your dog is limping."
"Your cat is purring."

"You're an amazing dancer."
"You're are so good with kids."
"You're a nice friend." 


d) Write 2 sentences OF YOUR OWN which contain both your and you’re.
Your cat is so fat and eats so much food but you're a good owner.
