Apostrophes

- What are the 2 times to use an apostrophe?Possession and Contraction.


- When should you use an apostrophe of possession? When something is the owner. 


- Where does it go in a sentence? *When it is talking about the owners thing.


- When should you NOT use an apostrophe of possession?When the sentence is not talking about someones things.


- When should you use an apostrophe of contraction? When you mix two words and make them one word.


- Why do we use apostrophe of contractions?Instead of putting two words together and making them really long you can take some letters out and make the word shorter.


- Where does the apostrophe of contraction go in a contracted word? *Where the missing letters are.
Give 3 examples*

Would Not - Wouldn't  Could Not - Couldn't I Am - I'm
