Alfie the Apostrophe


Have y'all ever used this book to help teach contractions and possessives? It is the CUTEST book! I created an anchor chart to help reinforce this skill and then made little Alfie's after reading. 




I've created a packet that contains the patterns for this craft and also a contraction sorting activity. You can find it here.

Want to win a copy?? Head over to Facebook to find out how.
