Contractions

Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Felice Green, Ed.M



Chorus:
If you're looking for action
And you want satisfaction
That's the time
That you're gonna need a contraction.

Two words can be made into one.
"Can not" becomes "can't"
It's a lot of fun.
Take out the "O" and add an apostrophe.
It's very easy.

Chorus

Two words can be made into one.
"There is" becomes "there's"
It's a lot of fun.
Take out the "I" and add an apostrophe.
It's very easy.

Chorus

"Do not" becomes "don't."
"Will not" becomes "won't."
"Could not" becomes "couldn't."
"Would not" becomes "wouldn't."
"Should not" becomes "shouldn't."
"Was not" becomes "wasn't."
It's so easy, don't you agree?

Chorus

"There is" becomes "there's."
"Where is" becomes "where's."
"She is" becomes "she's."
"He is" becomes "he's."
"John is" becomes "John's."
"Jane is" becomes "Jane's."
It's so easy, don't you agree?

Chorus
