HOMEWORK 1-29-13

We are learning about contractions.  They are two words that are blended into one.  One or more of the letters are replaced by an apostrophe.  For example it is becomes it's when it is a contraction.  Please point these out to your child when you see them in print anywhere, especially in their reading books. 

To practice, play Treasure Trove

COMMENT BOX:  Write the contractions for the following word pairs: 
1.  do not
2.  should not
3.  was not
4.  will not (Be careful with this one.)
5.  is not
6.  are not
7.  cannot (This one is tricky, too.)
8.  have not
9.  were not
10.  would not

Remember to write your first name in the comment box.
