ELA CONTRACTIONS: 54 Double Sided Flashcards, Expanded and Contracted form

This product has been developed to use in the classroom to support developing the student knowledge of contractions across a variety of words families. The product includes 54 double-sided flashcards, each card contains one word in two formats:

• One side of the card includes the expanded form of the words being used
• Second side of the card shows the contracted form of the word being used

The flashcards are easy to produce:

1. Print the document
2. Cut the cards and fold each one along the dotted line so that the cards become double sided
3. Laminate the cards and cut with a small 3mm edge to ensure the cards last for many years to come

The product can be used in a variety of ways in your classroom:

• Flashcards going from expanded to contracted form
