are boys and girls so for grammar this week we're going to start a new unit we're going to start working this contraction okay contractions is when you take two words put them together all right and you shorten them and make them work together okay through a contraction at the short way of writing two words when you write a contraction you leave out a letter or letters and put in an apostrophe but this is an apple can you talk about that symbol before some contractions are made using the word not okay when you make a contraction with the word not you take the O out and you've replaced it with an apostrophe so if you look at these contractions below you probably use them a lot and you never even realized what they were right so the word don't is do not ever going to trade and we're going to write haven't is have not like I haven't done I work today hasn't and didn't write did not so you have do not as don't have not as haven't has not it hasn't and did not it didn't time so you're going to write the contraction for the two underlined words so instead of I do not have a hole in my pocket you don't have a hole in your pocket Kate and you guys can resin be a lot Matt have not put the puzzle together hasn't the bird have not flown South have not so haven't Leslie did not plant the sea yet didn't Tomas has not lost a race hasn't they have not been to the museum in haven't I do not want to go to the mall I don't we did not have time to fly the kite didn't can I still use those four at the top right those are contractions using the word not there are contractions that you let's keep going underline the contraction that is spelled correctly so that means the one that has the apostrophe in the correct place when you're using contractions with not that means it is replacing the O in the word not kind George didn't or didn't find his skates this one because it replaces the okay my brother and I don't stay up late Kara hasn't read that book The Rabbit haven't eaten the carrots and let it Olivia didn't forget her homework kinds of apostrophe in each of those is replacing the o complete Sunday with the contraction on the right we'll use some twice okay Sarah blank missed a practice Eric don't miss the practice hasn't missed a practice haven't missed a practice didn't miss a friend missed a practice so this would be hasn't has not missed Fred breakfast blank want to play in the snow I don't how to play in the snow my sister blank pack my lunch my sister didn't pack my lunch K the trees blank shed their leaves yet the trees haven't okay and this apple blank been eaten eaten this apple hasn't Deneen writers corner I write a sentence about a food you do not like use a contraction don't I don't like vanilla ice cream another controversial opinion and you know I don't like okay next pitch now we're going to use more contractions with not okay remember that some contractions are made with the word not here or more K could not is couldn't are not is warrant does not is doesn't it not isn't so you're going to trace those words and practice putting your apostrophe where it belongs okay and then be you're going to write the contraction where I belong Mali does not like does not take piano lessons so doesn't those explorers are not giving up aren't the sun is not seeing at night isn't a worm does not have phone doesn't the birds are not Flying Too Close arant Brian could not fit into the shoes couldn't the river is not very deep isn't train could not move on the track couldn't right next to you all right you're going to fill in the contraction that works okay you might use it more than once the Lions blank in the cage all right a toad blank smooth skin doesn't have smooth skin an egg isn't Square write an egg is round where the fox couldn't catch the rabbit couldn't this cow doesn't half wild animals aren't friendly I blank pet the lion at the zoo I haven't Orange Leaf I would say I couldn't run that I had and I couldn't that pickle isn't sweet the Bell doesn't ring on time and the fish haven't been fed today all right one last one okay last page working with contractions we still have more with not okay there's a lot with not was not we're not Hannah and will not so was not is wasn't going to trace we're not is warrant cannot is can't and will not as well write write the contractions in the lines were underlined words the gorillas were not fed yet warrant Rory was not in the three-legged race wasn't Jason cannot keep a squirrel as a pet can't a scalp will not play with matches will not is won't remember it's a little bit different the horses were no wild weren't it was not too cold to play outside wasn't I will not eat peanut butter and pickles won't and she cannot make the paint can't all right though this one is spelled slightly different guys you changed into a w into a no braid i l l goes into before it goes into an apostrophe T right so just be careful when you're using will not and why
