Fabulous Flip Books-Sucesses & Troubles

We've been working on our contraction flip books at school. I thought I would share some of the great sentences and pictures that go with them! I explained that I would be grading them with a rubric. The rubric will cover CUPS . . . Capitalization, Understanding, Punctuation, and Spelling. I'm also going to rate them on their Neatness. . .  N-CUPS  I guess!

Here are the flip books before we started working on them. (You can get a copy on this page from Google Docs. There is also a video to help you make the flip books . . . they seem so simple! Ugh!)

 The kids were to use the 2 words to make a contraction that they would use in a sentence. They would then illustrate their sentences. I have to tell you . . . Some of these are a HOOT!

Safe and sound!

Do you think this girl has heard that before?

I think I've been to this restaurant before!

Help!

Me too! ALWAYS!

How many promises have you made at Target? LOL

Yikes! A bear!

This is an amazing picture . . . however, we are going to work
on finishing this before the end of the 9 weeks! :)

We will be going over these sentences next week. We are
going to have a little talk about they had and they would.
I really didn't think about how hard this would be! 

Thanks for stopping by! Sorry I can't seem to post more than a couple of times a week . . . the weeks sure do keep me busy! I'm sure you can relate!

 Be sure to get your free flip book download . . . I promise to get the rubric done soon. I'll have that on here for you as well!
