  • Activity 1 / Contractions Worksheet

    preview

    Contractions are very popular in the English language. They make writing and reading easier, and are mostly used in informal writing. Contractions are the combination of two words to make one, with an apostrophe between them. For example; I am = I’m, they are = they’re, she is = she’s, and so on. Ask your students if they can give you some more popular contractions. Then, read the sentences in this worksheet and help them check the correct contraction to replace the words in bold.

This was a really fun way to get my kids to practice their math. I usually struggle to get them into it and Kids Academy makes it easy.

So engaging
We love how we can focus on math with this app. It is engaging and we love how we are able to adjust and tailor the levels according to our son’s knowledge and skill levels!

Daughter's favorite
Still a top favorite for our 7 year old. She loves earning her stars as she learns to trace letters and numbers. Coloring and the sounds are engaging and are on target for her age group and being Pre K.
