UNDERSTANDING POSSESSIVES



GREATEST STRATEGY I EVER USED! A MUST IN GRADES 3-5.
Directions for teaching the flow chart:
List several singular and plural nouns on the chalkboard. Next, read aloud one word from the list and use the chart to find the correct spelling of its possessive form. Continue to do it with volunteers, A LOT! Eventually, the students will have the strategy and will have no problems with spelling possessives.
