Apostrophes for missing letters
Apostrophes are used to show where letters are missing from a word.
I am – I’m had not – hadn’t you are – you’re
Sometimes the shortened word doesn’t quite match the words it’s made from: will not – won’t
Task

- We will have to try again tomorrow.
- Mrs Smith does not wear any socks.
- She is always reading a book.
- They have been on holiday again.
