I happened to stubble into a contractions activity that my students LOVED!!! My original plan was to use the paint color strips 
As you can see however, my three year old cut almost all I had into perfect little rectangles-pretty good cutter that little man! Otherwise I would probably not have laughed it off so much.
Anyways, in a last might brain flash I decided to whip out some good old fashion sticky notes....below are my examples but the students filled their pages! They used the smaller tiny stickies and just went to town on the activity!
