"Its" is possessive, "it's" is a contraction.
They really don't teach this in school anymore?

Nope. It's been years since I've been in a class that teaches these things, and I'm becoming mad at myself for not being able to spell very well.

ah yes.. vocabulary... guess what WE do?? we get this book with a few pagers per lesson, buncha questions for the 10 words per lesson (30 total) and for nearly all lessons, a short writting assignment.
our teacher tells us to do the few pages and the writing assignment. but she doesnt check if u did whats in the book, and u can write bullshit on a piece of paper for ur writing assignment and get credit.

My english teacher has us write a lot, but we do a lot of projects, and some grammar, thankfully.
