Apostrophes 

 

This week we are going to revise using an apostrophe to show possession or ownership. 

 

Singular nouns

Simon's cat - the apostrophe goes before the 's' and tells you that the cat belongs to Simon 

James' socks - because James already ends in an 's', the apostrophe goes after the 's'

 

Plural nouns

The children's toys - although plural, 'children' does not end in an 's', therefore the apostrophe goes before the 's'

The ladies handbags - 'ladies' is plural and already ends in an 's', therefore the apostrophe goes after the 's'

 

Here's an information page with more detail:

 

These videos will give you more information about using the apostrophe to show ownership.
