Description
The Is Contractions Worksheet gives young learners focused practice with one of the trickiest parts of English grammar: joining a subject and the word “is” into a smooth, correct contraction. When children discover that “he is” becomes he’s and “it is” becomes it’s, they begin to read and write more naturally. This worksheet keeps the pattern simple — drop a letter, add an apostrophe — so the skill quickly starts to feel automatic.
This 2nd grade contractions worksheet is split into two easy parts. First, students combine word pairs like “she is” and “what is” to build the matching “is” contraction and write it on the line. Then they use a word bank to complete real sentences, choosing the contraction that fits best. To use it, simply print the page and let children work independently or with a partner; the included answer key makes checking fast for teachers and parents.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- 6 build-a-contraction items and 6 word-bank sentences
This is contractions worksheet helps kids in three important ways. First, building contractions by hand reinforces exactly which letters disappear and where the apostrophe belongs. Second, the word bank offers just enough support for confident, correct answers while still asking students to think about meaning. Third, using contractions inside full sentences shows learners how these short forms actually sound in everyday speech and writing.
For extra practice, invite children to hunt for “is” contractions in a favorite storybook and list each one they find. Play a quick matching game with cards that pair “he is” with he’s, or challenge students to say a sentence the long way and then the short way. Writing a few silly sentences packed with contractions turns review into a giggle-filled game the whole class can enjoy.
