SPa. G starter - Add the apostrophe in the correct places below. Harry said he couldnt do his homework. Billy didnt like his new haircut. Molly cant sleep very well if she naps in the day. Jake doesnt like chocolate ice cream but he loves chocolate! Lisa hasnt seen a four leaf clover before.
Apostrophes have two uses! 1. They replace letters to shorten words. These are called contractions! E. g. did not becomes didn’t. 1. They are used to show when something belongs to somebody. This is called possession. E. g. Riley’s hat. The hat belongs to Riley.
Apostrophes for possession An apostrophe is normally used with the letters to show ownership or possession.
Mrs Cleghorn’s striped bobble hat. The bobble hat belongs to Mrs Cleghorn. Mr Carrington’s Nike trainers. The Nike trainers belong to Mr Carrington. Mr Burbage’s office. The office belongs to Mr Burbage.
This is Joan's jacket. The dog's kennel. Tate’s writing book. Millie's pen. Miss Clarke’s delicious lunch.
Warning! If the person/proper noun ends in an ‘s’ the apostrophe comes after the ‘s’ and not before. Some examples: Jess’ dance moves! James’ baseball cap. Miss Jones’ dog. Thomas’ Pokemon book.
Here are some pictures of objects (nouns). Can you match them up with a person (proper noun) of your choice and show possession by adding an apostrophe?

My Teacher by Roald Dahl My teacher wasn't half as nice as yours seems to be. His name was Mister Unsworth and he taught us history. And when you didn't know a date he'd get you by the ear And start to twist while you sat there quite paralysed with fear. He'd twist and twist your ear and twist it more and more. Until at last the ear came off and landed on the floor. Our class was full of one-eared boys. I'm certain there were eight. Who'd had them twisted off because they didn't know a date. So let us now praise teachers who today are all so fine And yours in particular is totally divine.
