I'm and Won't, They're and Don't: What's a Contraction?

(4) K-3 Words Are Categorical series. Illustrated by Brian Gable. Cleary's zany cartoon cats, shown in Gable's brightly colored illustrations, help define and provide examples of contractions. It's an entertaining starting point (or possibly a refresher) for kids learning about contractions; the rhyming text is snappy, but some of the examples are hard to follow.
