Introducing Contractions by Evan Kroon

What are some contractions you hear in the song?

What is a contraction?
Two words that are shortened and put together to make one word.

But what happens to the other letters when we shorten the two words?
The letters that are left out, get replaced by an apostrophe.

But what is an apostrophe?

An apostrophe looks like a comma, but is in the air when we write.

So what does a contraction actually look like?

Uh Oh! Some words need your help!
The student did not get recess because

he would not listen to the teacher.

The student DIDN'T get recess because

he WOULDN'T listen to the teacher.

The dog can not go home because

it is lost.

The dog CAN'T go home because

IT'S lost.

GOOD JOB!

you + are = you're

it + is = it's

can + not = can't

we + will = we'll

I + am = I'm

is + not = isn't

Contraction Surgery!
Objectives

What?

I can understand the usage of contractions.

I can correctly form contractions from two words.

Why?

Being able to read and write contractions helps me to be a better

reader, writer, and speaker.

How?

We will discuss the rules, spell, and read contractions.

Time to test yourself!

Can you change two words into a contraction in these sentences?

Here are some examples:

1) Remove the unwanted letters

2) Repair using apostrophe band-aid
3) Record Surgery on patient record sheet
4) Write which letters you took out
5) Use healthy contraction in sentence
Have+ not= haven't
