Study Guide Contractions English Language Arts, Grade 2
CONTRACTIONS
What
is
a
Contraction?
A
contraction
is
really
two
words
squeezed
together
to
make
a
new
word.
Some
of
the
letters
from
one
or
both
of
the
words
go
away
and
a
special
mark
called
an
apostrophe
goes
in
their
place.
Examples:
Do
+
not
=
don’t
(Notice
that
the
o
in
‘not’
is
gone.
The
apostrophe
takes
its
place.)
Can
+
not
=
can’t
(One
n
and
the
o
are
gone.
The
apostrophe
takes
the
place
of
both.)
It
+
is
=
it’s
(The
apostrophe
takes
the
place
of
the
i
in
‘is.’)
They
+
are
=
they’re
(The
apostrophe
takes
the
place
of
the
a
in
‘are.’)
We
+
will
=
we’ll
(The
apostrophe
takes
the
place
of
wi
in
will
)
Will
+
not
=
won’t
(The
ill
in
‘will’
is
gone
and
the
o
moved.
The
apostrophe
takes
the
place
of
the
o.)
