Plurals

Plurals activity develops the children’s understanding of singular and plural and their knowledge that the simplest way to make the plural of a word is to add “s”.

Explain that nouns usually change when they describe more than one. The name for nouns which describe more than one is plural. The simplest way of making a plural is by adding an “s” to the end of the noun. Call out examples of singular nouns and ask the children to give plurals for them.

The children read each noun and decide whether it is singular or plural. They draw a picture for each, remembering that for plural nouns they must draw more than one item. Then they look at the pictures in the boxes underneath. They write the noun for each picture, remembering that if it shows more than one item, they must add an “s” to make the plural.
