Contractions Grammar Worksheets in Spanish

Form the Spanish contractions al (a + el) and del (de + el) correctly

Choose the correct contracted or uncontracted form (al, del, a la, de la, a los, de los) to complete a sentence

Identify and correct sentences that incorrectly use 'a el' or 'de el' instead of the proper contraction

Match a preposition-and-article word pair to its correctly combined form

Start with the first three word-combination worksheets as a warm-up before moving to the al/del-specific worksheets, since the set moves from general combination practice to the two true Spanish contractions

Use the sentence-correction worksheet as a check for understanding after the fill-in-the-blank pages, since it requires students to catch the same 'a el'/'de el' error rather than just fill in a blank

Assign the multiple-choice worksheet as an independent check, since its choices are limited to exactly al or del

Preview key direction words (completa, rellena, corrige, une, elige) with beginner students before assigning independently, since every instruction in the packet is written in Spanish

Spanish contraction formation — students combine a + el and de + el into al and del across multiple worksheet formats.

Contextual sentence completion — students choose the correct contracted form to complete a Spanish sentence, from a fill-in-the-blank or a six-option word bank.

Error correction — students rewrite sentences that incorrectly use uncontracted 'a el' or 'de el' with the proper contraction.

Word-pair matching — students match a preposition-and-article phrase to its correctly combined form.
