Grade: 4
*This is a lesson I taught to fourth grade students during my student teaching internship.
Start by reviewing and teaching about contractions – how they are formed between two words.
Next, give each student a heart or arrow. Have the students circulate the room looking for their ‘Contraction Attraction.’ When each students has found their attraction, they sit by that person. Then, each couple will share with the class their contraction and two words that make that contraction.
