ELA CONTRACTIONS: 54 Posters, and 3D Prisms - Expanded and contracted forms

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 posters, each poster contains one word in three forms:

• Expanded form
• Visual model of how to transform (contract) the word
• Contracted form

The posters can be displayed in the classroom, can be turned into a book for student revision, can be used as flash cards for both contracted form and expanded form as well as use within literacy centers and home learning.

This product has also been designed to create 3D triangular prisms for each word. Full instructions are provided within the product which demonstrates how each poster can be cut, folded and secured to create a three-sided prism which can be turned by the teacher and the student to assess their knowledge of how words can be contracted and expanded.
