Overview

TEACHING KIDS ABOUT APOSTROPHE ""S"" IN POSSESSIVES helps students to learn that an apostrophe s is added to nouns and to some pronouns to show ownership. The book begins with a chart that summarizes how to form the possessive of singular nouns, of singular nouns that end with s, and of plurals that end with -s and -es. After reviewing the chart at the beginning of the book, the teacher reads the words above the illustrations, leaving out the apostrophe s sound. Instead of saying ""Aaron's bowl,"" for example, the teacher would say ""Aaron bowl."" (Students will likely note that it doesn't sound right without the apostrophe s sound.) Children then repeat the same words with the apostrophe s added-""Aaron's bowl."" The apostrophe s shows that the bowl belongs to Aaron. Under the illustration, there is a sentence where the name with the apostrophe s is used in context. While this is not a storybook, the sentences on a page do relate and even rhyme. A few pages are educational in other ways besides teaching about apostrophe s. For instance, one of the pages lists the order of the colors of a rainbow and includes the acronym for memorizing them. At the end of the book, you will find several reproducible worksheets that can be used for individual practice. This book is a part of the Habakkuk Educational Materials Reading Program, designed to teach primary grade students how to read. As such, the purpose of this resource is not only to teach children about possessives but also to help them learn to recognize various names and words they will encounter in other reading materials in this program, namely Bible History for Children and Youth (Text and Study Guide), Old Testament Textbook and Study Guides for Students, and New Testament Textbook and Study Guides for Students.
