ABBREVIATIONS: Classroom Clips

Abbreviations are shortened forms of words. They’re similar to Contractions.

When you are writing and you need to squeeze a lot of words into a small space, using abbreviations can save you time and space.

Classroom Clips is one of six common abbreviation collections I have created we use throughout our daily lives, such as following recipes, reading maps, telling time, identifying people, and taking measurements.

This particular group of abbreviations is seen when studying every day content in Math, Science, Geography, Social Studies, and, of course, Reading and Writing. They help you take notes when listening to a lesson, watching info-videos and/or doing research.

Included in Classroom Clips’ Activity Unit are:

• front & back covers for booklet use
• Construction  Instructions
