Apostrophes

- Explain the task of teaching apostrophes yesterday

The task of teaching apostrophes yesterday was to teach others were and when to put apostrophes into 

your writing either it was a contraction or a word of possession.

- What went well?

What went well was that my student listened and did very well in placing the apostrophes in the right place and she did well with the contractions

- What didn’t go well?

What didn't go well yesterday was when the word Mr Mills came up we weren't sure were to put the apostrophe.

- What were one or two things you realised?

We realised that because Mr Mills has an s at the end of her name you place an apostrophe behind the s and place another s so it would be Mr Mills's
