Two matching contraction charts show how pairs of words combine into one by dropping letters and adding an apostrophe — 'can not' becomes 'can't,' 'I will' becomes 'I'll,' 'would have' becomes 'would've.' The first chart is fully completed with all seventeen example pairs, ready to display or read as-is. The second repeats the identical seventeen contractions but leaves the definition's key words blank, so students fill in 'two,' 'one,' and 'apostrophe' themselves before using the chart as a reference. Grouped by base word — not, will, have, and am/is/are — the contractions move from the most common pattern to more irregular ones, giving students a structured reference for reading and writing.
