Apostrophes:
Apostrophes are used to show possession:

Apostrophes are also used to show when letters are missing:
Could not - couldn't Would not - wouldn't I will - I'll
Contractions:
Similar to contract meaning to squeeze together, a contraction is when two words are made shorter by taking out some letters, replacing them with an apostrophe.
Eg.
is not - isn't
The 'o' has been taken out of the words and replaced by the apostrophe.
I am - I'm
The 'a' has been taken out of the words and replaced by the apostrophe.
