Understanding Your / You're
Jessica looked at her notes and realised that she had forgotten to bring her umbrella. She thought, 'You're going to get wet if you don't take your umbrella.' As she walked to school, she noticed your house was the closest to the bus stop. She thought about how your advice about carrying a raincoat was helpful. Later, her teacher asked, 'Can you explain when to use your and you're?' Jessica confidently responded, 'Your is possessive, as in your backpack, and you're is a contraction of you are, as in you're late.'
