Focus: Contractions of words
Next week, we’ll be looking at words that have been contracted. (Like the one used in the previous sentence!)
e.g we will – we’ll you are – you’re it is – it’s
Task: write down ten sentences which contain words that have been contracted.
Remember: an apostrophe must be used to show where letters have been omitted.
Even better if… your sentences contained some words with prefixes or double consonants.
