Contraction Surgery!

Today we became surgeons in English. We were finding contractions.

A contraction is when you take 2 words and put them together to make a smaller word. You also need to use an apostrophe for the letter you take out.

E.g.

Can not = Can't
Would not = Wouldn't
I will = I'll

We really enjoyed our lesson because we dressed up as surgeons and cut up the words and stuck them back together!

Here are some pictures of our learning today.
