How this list was compiled: Every line was written for this site on 2026-09-18 and read aloud for sense. No line is taken from a published sight word list or workbook, and the page claims no list or grade level for the word. Spellings were checked against the macOS system word list. The counts in the spot-the-word rows and the word counts of the sentences were worked out. That American speakers say your three ways (close to yor, yoor and yur), that you're is a homophone, and that writing your for you're is an error often seen in writing: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/your (pronunciation, homophones and the usage note, checked 2026-09-18). That unstressed your is said yer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_and_vowel_reduction_in_English (weak and strong forms, checked 2026-09-18). Sound notes describe general American pronunciation.

How it works

Your is you plus r, but the ear hears yor or yer, and children spell it so. This sight word your worksheet has them trace it and circle it among "you", "year", "four" and "our". They finish the sentence Is this ___ hat?

Spell it as you, then add an r

Your is the owning form of you, and the spelling shows it: y-o-u, then r. A child who can write you is one letter from done. Wiktionary gives American speakers three ways to say the word, close to yor, yoor and yur. Wikipedia adds a weak form, yer, which comes out in "Get your lunch." On the board, the row "you you_ our _our" builds it from you, then from our.

The word inside classroom directions

Children seldom reach for your themselves. They hear it all day from a teacher: "Get your lunch." "Sit on your mat." "Write your name." Under Pick from the 12 sentences with "your", five are directions like these. The class can act one out, then write it.

  • Y alone has a tail. It drops below the base line while o, u and r sit above.
  • Hold up the child's hat and say "your hat". Hold up yours and say "my hat". Then swap speakers.
  • Our is your without the y. A child who swaps them needs the row "our your four your" on the board.

Questions and answers

When should I teach you're next to the your sight word?

Once "your" is solid. The two sound alike, and Wiktionary calls writing "your" for "you're" a common mistake in written English. Say "you are" where the word goes. If it fits, write "you're". On the board, the row "your you're yours" is for that stage.

Why does my student spell your as yor or ur?

They are writing the sounds, and here the sounds do not match the letters. The o-u says neither the ow of out nor, for most Americans, the oo of you. Go back to you, which the child can write, and add the r.

What are good sentences for the sight word your?

Directions a child already obeys: "Get your lunch." "Write your name." "Clap your hands." Then one that asks, "What is your name?" "You left your bag." holds you and your. To print one, press it under Pick from the 12 sentences with "your".
