Mrs. Bradley's Grade 2
If your child gets very excited when you say the word there, their or they're, it's because they've been working hard all week trying to learn how to use these words correctly! We started our week learning about homophones, and then we focused on their, there and they're. We practiced using these words in many different ways this week. First we used them in sentences with a partner, then we practiced finding them in sentences on a practice sheet. Then we had to be "Word Detectives" and find them in a chapter book. We also kept track of how often Mrs. Bradley said there, they're or their and created a tally chart. (Which was a lot!!) During our silent reading time, students were searching for these words and if they found one in a book, and could tell Mrs. Bradley which one it was, they got to add a Superstar to our jar. Finally, we had to show Mrs. Bradley how well we understood there, their and they're by completing an Exit Slip. (An exit slip is like a quiz).
Try using there, their or they're in a sentence and ask your child to define it!
