Spelling Words - week of Jan. 17-20

This week's words are tough because of the use of the apostrophe. Some of the words are plurals (meaning more than one person or thing); some of the words are singular possessives (one person or thing "owns" one thing); and some are plural possessives (more than one person or thing and they each "own" something). For example : 2 dogs (plural); my dog's bone (singular possessive); and my dogs' bowls (plural possessive).
