  2. Apostrophe can be tricky at times. At least that's what I think. I think some people secretly have trouble with apostrophe.

  3. That's true! Sometimes people may not even realize that they are doing it wrong. It's good to be aware of little things like this because it's the little things that can help make a great impression on your boss and clients and teachers.

  8. Apostophes can be really confusing. Glad it is easier for me to know where to put them now.

  11. Sometimes I get stuck on apostrophes. Like today on the final talking about beavers and their characteristics. There were "its" I was hesitating on placing an apostrophe or not. But now I know it's not because I remembered the "it is" factor.
