Second graders examine the function of contractions and learn how to form them on their own. In this contractions lesson, 2nd graders first discuss why we use contractions, and then review the rules for forming contractions. They learn the purpose of the apostrophe in contractions, and read examples of contractions. Finally, they learn a song that reviews the rules of contractions.
