Identify what your children know and understand about contractions when you download and use this KS1 Writing Contractions activity.

Each worksheet provides children with nine questions to work through, challenging children to show that they understand what contractions are and how to use them correctly in the given sentences.

Although suitable for use as a pre-assessment or end-of-unit assessment, this resource could also be used as additional practice either in class or at home. To make things easier for you, we have also included an answer page that will reduce your marking time significantly.
