Description

So many students have trouble with reading and spelling contractions. Do your students sometimes see don’t and read it aloud as do not?  My students do too.

A Few Patterns At a Time

Some programs try to show students all the patterns for spelling contractions at once. It often feels like too much for dyslexic students. This resource provides a different approach that gives the student time to get one contraction pattern down before moving on to another one.

Spelling with Extra Vowels

Have you noticed some students add a vowel to the two-syllable contractions like *didin’t, *coulden’t, etc?  They do that because they’re trying to sound out the contraction. We all feel and hear those vowel phonemes. Students need to learn why they aren’t spelled with those extra vowel letters.
