Literacy

Warm Up

Look for contractions in books, magazines etc you have at home.

Be careful apostrophes are also used in words to show belonging e.g Katy’s phone these are not contractions.

Split these contractions into two words

e.g  I’m = I + am

1. a) don’t       b) we’re     c) he’ll    d) you’re    e) we’ve     f) couldn’t

 

Combine these contractions – take care to position the apostrophe at the missing letter(s).

e.g I + am = I’m

1. a) we + will        b) you + have        c) does + not       d) can + not            e) I + have          f) who + will
