Five worksheets that take turns through the activities. Pages 1 and 4: students write the plural of each noun, with the rules in a box at the top. Pages 2 and 5: students circle the plural that is spelled right in each sentence. Page 3: students cut out nouns and glue each under the way it makes its plural. Every answer is worked out from the sentences themselves, and the answer keys mark each one.
Make a class chart with a column for each rule and add nouns from your reading as you find them. Irregular plurals get their own corner of the chart: the ones children must simply remember.
Pick objects around the house and ask for the plural: one box, two boxes; one knife, two knives; one mouse, two mice.
Plural nouns that follow the rules and plurals that do not, like babies, wolves, mice, and sheep. Students write plurals, choose the spelling that is right, and sort nouns by how they change.
