You and you're

A) Your and you're are homophones. Why are they homophones?
They are homophones because they sound the same but spell different.

B) Explain in your own words when should we use your and when should we use you're?
Your means an object that belongs to the person. You're means you are, replaced with my.

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 to be copied and pasted.
Your teddybear's neck got split!
Your books that you got from your birthday got ripped!
Your work is not good enough! Do it again!
You're so good at maths, can you help me?
You're going to the park, aren't you?
You're getting bored. I can see it.

D) Write 2 sentences OF YOUR OWN which contain both your and you're.
You're taking your basketball to the basketball court.
Your key is in your car!
