Two activities and a quiz involving identifying correctly and incorrectly punctuated contractions. Pupils must look carefully at the sentences to check if the apostrophes for omission have been put in the correct place for a variety of contracted words. There are three activities provided: ✽ Contractions Quiz: pupils identify whether each sentence is correctly or incorrectly punctuated. This quiz is great to use as a starter or plenary with the whole class with pupils working independently or in pairs. Each sentence contains one or more contractions, or words that are often confused with contractions, that have been correctly or incorrectly punctuated. Each answer is revealed and explained on the next slide. ✽ Contractions Card Sort: pupils sort the cards into correct and incorrect piles. Great for paired or small group work. Both large and small versions are provided, plus an answer sheet. ✽ Contractions Worksheet: pupils select the correct use of omission apostrophes and spelling of the contractions used in sentences. They also add missing contractions to sentences. Great as an independent assessment task. ✽ Contraction Word Bank: can be used by SEN or lower ability pupils to support them while carrying out these activities. This word bank is also a useful reference sheet for independent writing activities. As well as common contraction use, these resources also look at the following errors in contraction use: • Confusing it’s with its • Confusing who’s with whose • Confusing they’re with there or their • Confusing plural nouns with contractions ending with ’s Answers to all tasks are included. All documents available as easily editable Word/Powerpoint documents as well as PDFs. These activities are suitable for years 3, 4, 5 or 6.
