Week 5 - Contraction Surgery

Last week in class we all became surgeons and put on our masks and surgical gloves and operated on some contractions using a scalpel (pair of scissors).  Then we taped them back together again - this week (Week 6) we have been working on being 'Contraction Detectives' when we are reading and to practice using contractions in our writing.  Thanks to the 'First Grade parade' blog for this cool activity - we had so much fun doing this!
