    To simplify....

    Cheat sheet:

    Possessive, no apostrophe:

    His
    Her
    Their
    Its

    Contraction with "be (is, are)," with apostrophe:

    He's
    She's
    They're
    It's

    The words on the second list are always standing in for two. So when considering "it's," remember it is always standing in for two words: "it is."
