Lesson 28: Contractions & October copywork

A contraction is made up of two words, put together into one word, with some letters left out. An apostrophe is put in the place of the missing letters. Read back through The Quarrel from Lesson 27 and find all of the contractions. In each box, write down the contractions you find and the two words that make up the contractions. (Some paragraphs will not have contractions.) Paragraph 1 Paragraph 2
