🔺 Triangle – Lower-ability level

Pupils choose the correct form of there, their or they’re to complete individual sentences before rewriting five sentences containing incorrect homophones. This level provides the greatest structure and supports learners who are beginning to distinguish between the three words.

⚪ Circle – Middle-ability level

Pupils select there or their to complete a connected paragraph and then correct the use of there, their and they’re within a longer passage. Working in paragraph contexts increases the reading and grammatical demands.

⬛ Square – Higher-ability level

Pupils correct a paragraph containing incorrectly used homophones and then write their own four- to five-sentence paragraph using there, their and they’re correctly. This level encourages independent application and provides an additional writing challenge.
