Four pages of plural nouns. On two pages children write the word for more than one under each picture: one fox, two foxes. On two pages they write s or es in a box after each word. Half the words on every page take es, the ones that end in x, s, sh or ch, so children have to listen for the extra sound.
Say pairs aloud and clap the parts: cup, cups (one clap each); box, boxes (one clap, then two). The extra clap is the es. Sort a few word cards into s and es piles before the page.
Name things in twos at home: two cups, two dishes, two brushes. Ask your child whether you heard an extra sound at the end.
Plural noun pages with a picture for each word: one fox, two foxes; one cup, two cups. Children write the word for more than one and decide whether each word takes s or es.
