We have been working on making nouns possessive by adding apostrophes. I started our study with showing when and how to use an apostrophe, but I quickly realized that many students didn't know what a noun was or all the different forms a noun can be in. So, we backed up a little and made the noun foldables. Definitions and examples were given for singular noun, plural noun, common noun, proper noun, singular possessive noun, and plural possessive noun. Students then went on a search through magazines for examples of each kind of noun. They cut out their example, glued it in the correct box and labeled it. They seemed to like this hands-on, creative way to learn grammar.
I can form and use possessives.

We don't know what we are naming the twin boys yet! And when we do figure it out, we keep it a secret until they are born, so you will know as a fourth grader!
