Contractions Posters – Anchor Charts for Class
Grammar, Language Development, ELA, Grade 1, 2, Posters, Classroom Decor, Anchor Charts, Teacher Tools
Introduce or review many different contractions with these contractions posters and anchor charts. Contractions are created when two words are made into one word. The missing letters are replaced with an apostrophe. Since most contractions follow the same pattern of letter elimination, these posters help to show students the similarity of contractions and how to appropriate spell the contractions. What is Included: There is one poster that focuses on words that use "not" in the contraction. There is one poster that focuses on words that use "will" in the contraction. There is one poster that focuses on words that use "would" in the contraction. There is one poster that focuses on words that use "is" or "are" in the contraction. There is one poster that focuses on words that use "have," "has," or "had" in the contraction. There is one poster that focuses on words that have exceptions or special cases for creating a contraction. These posters use arrows to help students see which letters are removed from each word. By grouping the contractions by similar words, students can easily see the pattern in how contractions are formed from each type of word. How to Use: Classroom Display: The teacher can use these posters as a classroom display for students to see throughout the year. Reference Charts for Centers or Journals: The teacher can place these posters inside a specific center for students to reference when completing tasks. By printing smaller sized, they can be placed in a writing journal for students to reference. Teaching Tool: The teacher can use these posters as a tool to teach about different kinds of contractions. These contractions posters are no prep. They can simply be printed and placed in the appropriate area of the classroom. The teacher may choose to laminate the poster for durability if desired.
