How it works

Each free sheet draws 8 of 149 sentences, about a third for each word. There is a place or starts there is, their shows something belongs to them, and they're is short for they are.

Read the full guide

The they are test

Read the sentence with they are in the blank. If it still makes sense, circle they're. If something belongs to them (their bikes, their dog), circle their. Otherwise it is there: a place (over there) or the start of there is and there are.

Short or longer sentences

Set picks Short sentences (six words or fewer) or Longer sentences, where some use two of the words at once: The kids left their jackets over there on the bench.
